1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: The clock is sticking. The mid terms are coming, and

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: this is Clay in Bucks countdown to election day podcast

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: candidates coverage at Analysis you won't hear anywhere else, bringing

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: you new intol each week. Let's go. We got Carrie

5
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: Lake with us. Now, Carrie I first, after we've had

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 1: you on a few times. Got to bring you back

7
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: and let you know that Clay, who, as you are

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: well aware as an enormous sports fan, says of those

9
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: running for office for first time in this election cycle,

10
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: you would be his not just first round draft pick,

11
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: number one draft pick in the Clay Travis political Draft.

12
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: So this is a tremendous honor. We might have to

13
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: send you a plaque or something, but we wanted to

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: know what it is at this stage of the race.

15
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: Bring us in on some of these dynamics because we

16
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: can't look at your debate clips because Katie Hobbs won't

17
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: debate you. We're giving her one more, one more shot

18
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: on Sunday where we finally found some honest arbiter who

19
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: will on our debate. And of course she's chickened out,

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: but we're going to give her one last chance. I

21
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: asked the clean elections folks invite her one more time,

22
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: give her one more chance to show a little respect

23
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: to the people of Arizona. So on Sunday we're doing it.

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: It might just be a solo debate, I guess with

25
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: me and the moderator, but maybe she'll find grow a

26
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: spine and show up. Carrie, you would be my number

27
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: one pick. And here's why. And I'm telling people out there.

28
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 1: First of all, you're gonna win, and we want everybody

29
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: listening to us in Arizona to make sure they go

30
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: vote for you. But you're going to win. And you

31
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: are smoking Katie Hobbs all over the state. And here's

32
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: what I think you're doing so well. You correctly diagnose

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: that the media hates you, right, they hate Buck and

34
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: Eye by and large as well, and so you record

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: every interaction you have with them, so you are putting

36
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: them on the spot like they have traditionally tried to

37
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: put you on the spot. And you're everywhere, You're answering

38
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: more questions than anyone. But you have the receipts and

39
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: you just present it to the people of Arizona. And

40
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: I've seen you say it over and over again. Look,

41
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: you're basically on a job interview every time you go out.

42
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: I just think it's a fabulously run a campaign. When

43
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: and how did you have the idea to begin to

44
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: chronicle every interaction that you had with the media, and

45
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: how have you found voters to respond to that? You know,

46
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: at first, I wasn't going to even talk to the

47
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: local media. We have the most biased media in the

48
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: whole country here in Arizona, and I thought, I'm just

49
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: going to avoid them at all costs. And then I

50
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: did a quick five minute interview right when I started

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: with a reporter and it was just such a hit job.

52
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: And my husband happened to record it on Zoom and

53
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: we put it out and it got such excitement from

54
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: people because they went, Okay, we caught them. We caught

55
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: the media doing what they do, and Carrie showed us.

56
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: And after that, I thought, you know, I should do

57
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,399
Speaker 1: this more often because I can go toe to toe

58
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: with these guys. First of all, they're not that smart.

59
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 1: Most of them aren't. There are a few smart ones,

60
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: but for the most part, they're not that smart, and

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: they're pushing an agenda. So we just started taking our camera,

62
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: our camera and a microphone on the road and we

63
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: record them while they're recording me, and you know what

64
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: they usually would get away with Clay and Buck is

65
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: they would ask a loaded question full of bias, you know,

66
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: their social activists, and then when they get it back

67
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: to the station, they cut their question. They're smart outlet

68
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: question out and they put just your response. Well, they're

69
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: not able to do that when we're recording them. We

70
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: show people how the sausage is made. We show how

71
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: the media, even the ones that they don't think are biased,

72
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: are actually asking very biased, leading questions. And it's been

73
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: really fun. It's interesting though, you know we do this.

74
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: We have huge press throngs that are covering us from

75
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: all over the world. We have Australian News, you know,

76
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: news from from Great Britain. We had Swift News here yesterday,

77
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: news from Japan following our race because the whole world's

78
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: kind of watching our race. And an interesting thing happened

79
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: the other night, two nights ago, when I was at

80
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: the big huge rally we did with Tulsi Gabbard, the

81
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: press assembled, it was a massive crowd, and not one

82
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: of them asked a stupid, leading, loaded biased questions. This

83
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: is what I was going to ask you. I was

84
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: gonna say, Carrie, have you had people that have realized, wait, wait,

85
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: hold on a second, we could actually just ask the

86
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: candidate questions instead of attacking her. So that is occurring.

87
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: In response, It happened two nights ago. I was I

88
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: walked away and I said, oh my gosh, are we

89
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: actually training these people to be real journalists or are

90
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: they so afraid they're going to get embarrassed when a

91
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: million people see one of our clips and they get

92
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: called out really by the world realizing that they're biased.

93
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: So I hope that we can train them to be

94
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: real journalists because that's what the people want. True. Speaking

95
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: of Carrie Lake right now, she's running in Arizona, I'm wondering,

96
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,799
Speaker 1: you know, do you come across at this stage still

97
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: people who are saying, look, you know, I voted, I

98
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: voted for Biden, but I'm on the fence at this point,

99
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: and they want you to make a final pitch because

100
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: I honestly, I sit here with Clay, we talk about

101
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: this day in and day out. If anyone is even

102
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: a little bit persuadable, it seems hard to believe that

103
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: at this phase, after two years of so much Democrat failure,

104
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: they wouldn't be persuaded. So I'm wondering, are you still

105
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: getting people on the fence come up to you and

106
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: what is it that they want you to address for

107
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: them at this point? Maybe just to clarify, you know,

108
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: maybe they're just they're right there, but this is the

109
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: last five yards that would make them finally cast their

110
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: vote for you. Well, every single day we're getting people

111
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: who say, I'm a Democrat and you're the first Republican

112
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: I've ever cast to vote for, or I voted for

113
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, and I see it's not working out, And

114
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: I don't want people out there to feel like they're

115
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: not welcome in the Republican Party. If you're waking up today, yesterday,

116
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: one minute from now that Joe Biden and the Democrat

117
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: Party it's not working out. Their dead end, destructive policies

118
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: are destroying this country, You're welcome in the Republican Party.

119
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: We want to grow this party into the biggest political

120
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: party and the most inclusive that we've ever seen in

121
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: this country. That's how you win elections. That's how you

122
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: get your policies enacted and put forward. So you know,

123
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: when I'm most worried about and the group that I'm

124
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: seeing come over the most are older Arizonans. They're approaching

125
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 1: their retirement or they're new into retirement, and they're telling me,

126
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I voted for Biden. I've watched a

127
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: third of my retirement savings disappear in nineteen months. I

128
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: can't afford this anymore. I'm worried I won't make it

129
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: through retirement and I'll have to go back to work.

130
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: And I feel for the older folks that are faced

131
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: with that dilemma. Some of them say, I can't work,

132
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: I've gotten too old, my health isn't where it used

133
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: to be. I don't know what I'm going to do,

134
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: how I'm going to make ends meet in a Biden economy.

135
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: They're the ones who are waking up the fastest. I

136
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: believe interest carry. I've got three kids by other people

137
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: out there that are fired up moms and death ads

138
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: about this COVID shot requirement. I'm sure that you've seen

139
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: in the last hour or so. The CDC voted fifteen

140
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: to nothing to try to include the COVID shot as

141
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: a part of the immunization schedule, or at least to

142
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: recommend it. Too many states and so I think I

143
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: probably know your answer, but I think it's an important

144
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: one that a lot of people in Arizona would want

145
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,239
Speaker 1: to hear, particularly the parents. You're not going to mandate

146
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: the COVID shot for kids to be able to attend

147
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: public schools? Right, No, absolutely not. When I heard this

148
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: a couple of nights ago, I was just and first

149
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: of all, these are unelected bureaucrats in the CDC, and

150
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: they're trying to control our lives. And we're going to

151
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: start pushing back against these federal agencies that have no

152
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: power over us. They think they do. They're pushing regulations

153
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: have not been passed by our lawmakers. These are regulations

154
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: coming from agencies full of unelected bureaucrats, lifetime bureaucrats. Unfortunately,

155
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: I think we're free to push back. First of all,

156
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: if for anybody in Arizona, we will not make your

157
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: children guinea pigs to a shot that has not proven,

158
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: that actually has caused injury to people. We're seeing it's

159
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: not effective. We see people who get the shot and

160
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: they're getting COVID faster rates than people who didn't get

161
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: the shot. And we're not going to force this on

162
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: our children. And I want the people of Arizona and

163
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: the moms and dad's out there to know I will

164
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: step in the way and not allow that to happen.

165
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: Your kids can go to school, they don't have to

166
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: be forced into this shot. And we're going to start

167
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: putting the rights back where they belong with parents. And

168
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: so I'm actually looking forward to taking on the federal government.

169
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 1: This last Supreme Court session, we had a huge case

170
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: it largely got ignored called EPA versus West Virginia, and

171
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court cracked open the door for us to

172
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: take on and battle back against some of these agencies

173
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: who are trying to make our lives miserable, destroy our

174
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: economies and our health. And they're pushing all of this

175
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: from Washington in DC. And we're going to kick that

176
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: door wide open and start pushing back against EPA, Department

177
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: of Education, atf all of these agencies that are pushing

178
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: regulations without laws that are backing those regulations. Kerry, working

179
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: folks go. It's so important not just that you win,

180
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: but that you win by a large enough margin to

181
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 1: show everybody that there is some sanity and there is

182
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: some hope for the folks of Arizona. Where can they

183
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: go in these last few weeks. Thank you, thanks for asking.

184
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: Karrie Lake dot com kri Lak dot com. You can

185
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: go there see where I stand on the issues, sign

186
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: up for emails, make a donation if you want. But

187
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: if you live in Arizona, call your friends. I know

188
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: you're probably going to vote already if you listen to

189
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: this show, make sure you're bringing friends out and make

190
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: sure they're voting. They've got a plan to vote. We

191
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: have to win by a mile to eke out a

192
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: one inch win. We still don't have a system that's

193
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: working properly. We've got Katie Hobbs, my incompetent opponent, is

194
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: still running our elections. We call for her to recuse herself,

195
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: you know, a year ago, but she hasn't done that,

196
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: and we just found out this week yesterday. I think

197
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: it was that she's already screwed up with putting out

198
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: thousands of bad ballots, already sending them to the wrong people,

199
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: the wrong type of ballots. And of course the fake

200
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: news ran cover for her rather than calling her out

201
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: in a serious manner. So we're already seeing some issues.

202
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: But we're gonna go out and vote like our lives

203
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: depend on it and show up in huge numbers on

204
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: election day and make sure we win this car lay

205
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: bastic stuff. We're going to help you as much as

206
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: we can. We also want to let you know we're

207
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: number one in Phoenix. We appreciate everybody listening on KFYI

208
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: number one and two soon K and st and ninety

209
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: seven one flagstaff. We're all over the state of Arizona.

210
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: Make sure you listen to carry Lake here, get out,

211
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: get your votes in. Thanks. I think your number one

212
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 1: overall pick runs a four to three forty she is

213
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: I'm telling you she's right. Just to make sure that yeah, yeah,

214
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,839
Speaker 1: that's very fast. That's a very fast forty time. That

215
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: would be a first round caliber forty times. She's gonna win,

216
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: and it's going to change things, I think in a

217
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: big way for many of these states. Again, I was

218
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: thinking about it already, Buck, I'm already looking forward to it.

219
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: I will get some tears on MSNBC and CNN. Oh my, Clay,

220
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: we're throwing a party. Can I just put this out? Wait?

221
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: Can we come back and talk about election party for

222
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: a second, because yeah, yea, we called the shot on

223
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: this one beginning of the year and there was a

224
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: moment there the summer was like, maybe the party will

225
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: be a little bit less sad than we thought. But

226
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: looking like we're gonna be doing backflips and belly flops

227
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: into liberal tear. It's gonna be amazing. Matt Ow. I

228
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: want big sloppy tears rolling down her cheeks if they

229
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 1: bring her and actually put her on the air, because

230
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: she's only doing like one day a week now. There

231
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: is I'm just gonna say this, there is no there

232
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: is no joy like watching MSNBC the night of an

233
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: electoral slacking. It is amazing. It is amazing the best joy.

234
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: Reid is going to be so upset at the number

235
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: of Hispanic, Black and Asian supremacists who help to ensure

236
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: that we have not only a red way, but a

237
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: red tsunami. I can't wait to hear it. Michael Lindell,

238
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: guy got his phone taken from him in the parking

239
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: lot of a Hearty's because the federal government doesn't like

240
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: what he's saying about politics. Think about that for a minute.

241
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: My man was just trying to go get some food

242
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: at a Hearty's and they took his phone from him,

243
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: and they won't give it back. He's also a fabulous

Speaker 1: We are joined by our friend Anna Pauline a Luna.

267
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: She is running for Congress up in the Tampa Bay

268
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: area of Florida and she is with us. Now, Anna,

269
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 1: great to have you back. Thank you so much for

270
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: having me back on buck. So one thing I think

271
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: is really is really interesting is how much money the

272
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: Democrats are. You're in a congressional race, and yeah, sure

273
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: some congressional races yours getting a lot of attention, some

274
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: get more attention than others, but they generally don't get

275
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: at the kind of money that is being engaged in

276
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: the millions. And yet the Democrats are throwing the kitchen

277
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: sink at you, it seems. What's going on. Well, as

278
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: of right now, we are collectively up against seven million

279
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: dollars in spending, which is pretty unheard of for most

280
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: house races in Florida. So, as you know, this was

281
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: a newly redistricted seat. We are one of the top

282
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: five targeted to take back the House, and just one

283
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: Illinois billionaire actually just dumped in about seven million dollars

284
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: into a superpack called progress for Penellis and apparently he's

285
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: trying to turn Pennell's County into Chicago. What Anna, thanks

286
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: for coming on. And I know that that we've met

287
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: before and I've talked about this race, But what's the

288
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: most ridiculous thing that you have seen said about yourself?

289
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: With all of this money rolling in, I think you

290
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: got a decent into humor. I mean some of it

291
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: has to be crazy, right to be twenty days out

292
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: and to have them so desperate and a state where

293
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: Ron Descanta is going to kick ass in the governor's race,

294
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: and certainly Marco Rubio, who were about to have on

295
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: is going to beat Val Dimmings. They are desperate to

296
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: try to find a win somewhere anywhere. What's the craziest

297
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: attack you've seen against yourself? So initially it started out

298
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: with my Democrat opponent calling me supreme extreme, and then

299
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: I looked it up and it's actually a type you're

300
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna laugh. It's a type of guacamo. And so I

301
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: know I'm Hispanic, right, I'm Mexican. But you know, it's

302
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: interesting that the Democrat Party always likes to really kind

303
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: of label Hispanic Republicans as some form of food item

304
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: or as as you said, you know, crop pickers. But yeah,

305
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: breakfast breakfast taco right, as Joe Biden memorably described, Yeah,

306
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: breakfast tacos. But you know it doesn't just stop there.

307
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: We found out recently and I'm actually going to probably

308
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: be trolling my opponent here in a few minutes. But

309
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: my Democrat opponent actually started sending out my swimsuit photos

310
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: to his donors, and I guess in an effort to

311
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: have them donate to him. But I'm actually going to

312
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: be trolling him about this because she was recently photo

313
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: dancing with drag queens, and so I said, well, I

314
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: know that your party can't define women, but I can,

315
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: and you choose a difference. We're talking to Annapoleon alluded everybody.

316
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: She's running for Florida's thirteenth congressional district in the Tampa

317
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: Bay area, and Anna, I wanted to let you just

318
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: tell everybody a little bit about your background. I mean,

319
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: you're an Air Force veteran, but even earlier on than that,

320
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,359
Speaker 1: there's some really interesting parts that parts of your experience

321
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: here in this country that you bring to the table

322
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: that I think the voters of Tampa Bay should know

323
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: about absolutely. So I grew up within the welfare system.

324
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: I was raised by a very young single mother. And

325
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, one of the biggest attacks that they're running

326
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: against me is that I'm pro life. But a lot

327
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: of people might not realize that my own mother was

328
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: essentially asked to have an abortion by my father and

329
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: she chose life. And then later on when I met

330
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: my husband, Andy, who you well know, it turned out

331
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: that he was actually a byproduct of unconsensual events and

332
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: he was actually adopted out with his twin brothers. So

333
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: a lot of what I talk about in regards to life,

334
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: in regards to you know, the ability to be born

335
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 1: into nothing and really attain everything through hard work in

336
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: the American doom, not from personal experience. You know, I

337
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: left the situation and environment where I was exposed to

338
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: gang culture at the inner cities of Los Angeles. I

339
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: joined the military at nineteen, and it was the best

340
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: decision I ever could have made. I met my husband

341
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,399
Speaker 1: Andy twelve years ago. We got married pretty quickly, So

342
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: we married after about a month of dating. But you know,

343
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: I'm very happy to say that we were still together.

344
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: We're pushing strong and in twenty fourteen when he was

345
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: shot in Afghanistan. I actually ended up really seeing firsthand

346
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: what happens with you know, the long term impacts of

347
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: war on these families and what our friends were going through.

348
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: And so I got involved with several nonprofits focusing on PPSD,

349
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: and I later him across an organization called Veterans for

350
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: Child Rescue, and ultimately that's how I got politicals. I

351
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: was working as a volunteer and counter trafficking, and I

352
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 1: realized propaganda was being used against the American people in

353
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: regards to what was happening with immigration debate, and I

354
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: was later recruited by Turning Point USA. I was there

355
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 1: for about a year. I want to pregger you as

356
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: their national Hispanic Outreach director, and realized I needed to

357
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: run for office. So I'm here weathering the storm now.

358
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: And what would happen if you hadn't joined the military?

359
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: Based on just kind of the environment that I was

360
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: exposed to. I mean, to be quite honest, do most

361
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: people that you know are from where I'm at, born

362
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: in Wedlock, obviously exposed to poverty. I probably would have

363
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: ended up, you know, either on drugs, probably singled with

364
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: a kid and you know, I understand people are not

365
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: always dealt the best hand, but the military really provided

366
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: me the structure that I needed. Not to just help

367
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: my family, but I was later able to help my

368
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: dad and I got him sober and moved him out

369
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: to Florida and we had some good time together before

370
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: he passed to in January. And Anna, we know you

371
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: are You're Mexican American by background, but the left likes

372
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: to come after you for whitewashing. What's that all about? Yeah,

373
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: so I realized that because of the color of my skin,

374
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: I'm not the right type of minority. Right do left

375
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 1: likes to stereotype and to use race and skin color

376
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: to divide people so that we don't talk to one another.

377
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: I've been told countless times by leftist reporters that, you know,

378
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: how am I Hispanic if I look white? And then

379
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: you know, my response is pretty straightforward. Am I supposed

380
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: to look like Speedy Gonzalez and run around with System

381
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: Barrow to you know, prove how hispanic I am? I mean,

382
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: they like to forget that Barack Obama was half white,

383
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: and yet they called him the first black president. So

384
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: I mean they like to push that narrative. But as

385
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: you'll known, as many people listening to the show, to

386
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: include you know, some of my friends, Mario. I know

387
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: you're listening to this show all the way out in Illinois,

388
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: but you know Hispanics are not just one color, and

389
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: we're not just one culture. Obviously, we're first and foremost

390
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: a Man Americans, but we're Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Mexicans, Columbians.

391
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: And it doesn't just stop there. I mean recently I

392
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 1: saw a headline and an article that try to tie

393
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 1: me to Pablo Escobar and I just started laughing because

394
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: I said, I don't think they realized Mexicans and Columbians

395
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: are different. And by the way, Roun Cartel, Hannah, what

396
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: are you hearing the most from your district as you

397
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: travel around? And we want you also to tell people

398
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: how they can support you where you are running in Florida.

399
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: You can give us all that info because I'm sure

400
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: that a lot of people have really enjoyed hearing from you.

401
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: But what are you hearing on the ground from your

402
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: constituents that matters the most to them? As we sit

403
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,239
Speaker 1: here twenty days from the election. The economy, you know,

404
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: people are actually being priced out of Pinellas County. It

405
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: is now one of the most expensive counties to live

406
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: in and all of Florida. And you know, we have

407
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: an incredible governor, but the governor doesn't control the economy

408
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: that's made. Those decisions are made out of the White

409
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: House and out of Washington, DC. And a lot of

410
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: people right now cannot afford this inflation that we're seeing.

411
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: A lot of people are afraid of what's happening. When

412
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: you have Joe Biden talking to his donors about the

413
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 1: potential of armageddon in nuclear war. I mean, that's not

414
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: we might think Joe Biden sounds crazy, but like that's

415
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: actually very scary from a national security perspective. And so

416
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people right now, as much as you left,

417
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: as much as Democrats are really just I think, like

418
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: emotionally abusing my constituents with these awful attack ads about me,

419
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 1: saying that I'm crazy and all this other garbage. You know,

420
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: those people are really struggling. And so I am for

421
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: a balance with budget amendment. I am for really reeling

422
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 1: in some of this reckless spending. But more importantly, I'm

423
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: someone that's controlled by we the people, not special interests,

424
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: and definitely not some billionaire you know, Playboy out out

425
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 1: in Illinois or yeah, Michigan and Napoline a little. Where

426
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: do people go to donate because you're going to need

427
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: the war chest here to fight back against Libs in

428
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: New York and California and everywhere else that are donating

429
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: your opponent. Yeah, if you want to help fight the

430
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: Clinton source money that they're pouring into this race, and

431
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: that's exactly where it's coming from, please head to vote

432
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: apl dot com. Even if you can just do twenty dollars,

433
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 1: it all matters. We are really really white knuckling this race. Okay,

434
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: we're holding on and we are doing everything we can

435
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: and we're looking good. But they are throwing literally everything

436
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: in the kitchen sink. So I need your help and

437
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: I hope to have your vote on novemberation. Let's all

438
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: be honest with this. For second, folks, they don't want

439
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: a really outstanding female. The Democrats are terrified and about

440
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: an outstanding female Mexican American veteran in Congress within our

441
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: next to our name. They hate this, so they're trying

442
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,679
Speaker 1: to stop this. Democrats are trying to stop this. We

443
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: obviously want it to go forward. It should go forward,

444
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: be best for the people of Pinellas County and apolint alone. Everybody, Ada,

467
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: to Clay in Bucks Countdown to Election Day podcast. We're

468
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: joined now by Caroline Levitt, who is seeking to become

469
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: one of the youngest members of this next Congress. She

470
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: is the nominee for the Republicans in New Hampshire in

471
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: a very competitive seat that she is trying to flip

472
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: from Democrat control. We had her on before the primary, So,

473
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: first of all, congrats, and the primary in New Hampshire

474
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: is not until September, right, Caroline, So you've been really

475
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 1: in the midst of a sprint. I'm sure where everything

476
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: has been crazy. How's it going in New Hampshire. What

477
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: are you seeing on the ground and what do you

478
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 1: expect to see in twenty days? Yeah, well, thank you

479
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: so much for having me back on. You guys had

480
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,479
Speaker 1: me i think forty eight hours before polls opened here

481
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: in New Hampshire in the primary. We had a huge victory.

482
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: We won by ten points and now we're ready to

483
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: do the same thing in three weeks. We are feeling great.

484
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 1: We're about twenty days out. As you mentioned, we are

485
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 1: tied in a dead heat race with my Democrat incumbent

486
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: opponents Chris Pappits. Now most of your listeners have probably

487
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 1: never heard of Chris Pappas because frankly, he doesn't do

488
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: anything other than vote with Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden

489
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the time. So he's been a

490
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 1: disaster for my great home state of New Hampshire to

491
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: live for your die state, running into district where I

492
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 1: grew up, where my family has a business, where I

493
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: went to school, played college softball, as you guys know,

494
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: at a Division two school here in New Hampshire. So

495
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to a huge victory and turning to

496
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 1: the direction of our country around real quick come January,

497
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: because as you guys know, it is not moving in

498
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 1: the right direction. In voters know that as well. That's

499
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: why we're very confident we'll have a big victory here

500
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: on November eight. So, Caroline, we want to know specifically

501
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: some of you you bring up and this has been

502
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: the case for all This is the case for a

503
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: lot of incoming Democrats who all of a sudden are, Oh,

504
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a maverick, I'm I go rogue on the

505
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: Democrat Party. Then you say, well, hold on a second,

506
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: where how does that actually happen? I mean, what are

507
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: some of the votes or some of the positions that

508
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: your opponent, the comment up in New Hampshire has taken

509
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: in the good folks of New Hampshire, many of whom

510
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: are listening right now should know about. Well. They certainly

511
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: don't agree with the five point five trillion dollars in

512
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: new spending that my Democrat opponent, Chris pappas our representative

513
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: here in the first is chart has a green lighted

514
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: five point five trillion which has led to the eight

515
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: point two percent insulation that we're all feeling the price

516
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: of groceries, the price of jazz, the price of everything.

517
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 1: Is of our small businesses, which are the backbone of

518
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: our economy here in New Hampshire are really suffering. Their

519
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,479
Speaker 1: profit versions are minimizing every single day. Secondly, his record

520
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: on energy has been disastrous. He supported Biden's cancelation of

521
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: the Keystone. He supports the band for drilling and tracking

522
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: on federal lands, and he certainly supports massive socialist spending

523
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,199
Speaker 1: sprees like the Green New Deal that was introduced by

524
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: his friend in the House, Alexandrew Ocasio Cortez, which has

525
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 1: led to the highest electricity race in New Hampshire history,

526
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: four times as high as they were last year alone.

527
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: We actually called the press conference on this yesterday outside

528
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: of an intimate country store in one of our great towns, Londonderry,

529
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: New Hampshire. People brought their utility bills to the press

530
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: conference to show the increased months and months increase over

531
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: the past year alone. So we are hurting both in

532
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: our wallets for our home heating oil this winter, people

533
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: of New Hampshire. We are literally choosing between heating and

534
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 1: eating this winter, and it's a direct result of this

535
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: guy's policy. One more, if I may. He's been terrible

536
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: for our law enforcement community. He promised our law enforcement

537
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 1: here in New Hampshire that he would always protect qualified

538
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: immunity if the one safeguard they have, he voted to

539
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: strip it in the name of social and racial justice

540
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: because Nancy Pelosi told him too. So I'm proud to

541
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: be supported by the New Hampshire Police Association, and I'll

542
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: always vote to protect our good men and women in

543
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: Blue Caroline, Are you still twenty five? Yes? In fact,

544
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 1: I am still twenty five. So when will you turn

545
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: twenty six? Will you be officially the youngest member of Congress?

546
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 1: Do you know of anybody's younger than you in come January? No,

547
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,479
Speaker 1: I will be the youngest member of Congress when elected

548
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: in January, I'll be the youngest congresswoman ever elected in

549
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: United States history. I turned twenty five just before my

550
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: primary in August, So thank Gosh to my mother for

551
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: giving birth to me in time for this big red waves.

552
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: All right, So New Hampshire voters are famously fickle. That is,

553
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: there are Republicans, there are Democrats. But you can correct

554
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: me on this. I believe the majority of New Hampshire

555
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 1: voters are independents. That is, they make a decision election

556
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: to election who they should support. If that is true,

557
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: and I'm sure there are a lot of those people

558
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: in the first district in New Hampshire. How are you

559
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: appealing to those people who are independent? And what are

560
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: you seeing mattering to them the most as we come

561
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 1: down the stretch run. Yeah, So the most recent public

562
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: pool has US leading with independence, and I'm talking to

563
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: them every single day on the Grant campaign trail, and

564
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: they're are going to vote for us because they are

565
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: feeling the consequences of this administration Joe Biden, Pelosi and

566
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: our Representative Chris Pappas's agenda. They're feeling it again with inflation,

567
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: with energy costs. The wide open southern border has send

568
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: a lethal amount of fetanel to our state and it's

569
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: poisoning our communities. And so my message is to end

570
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: all of that, to reverse to the policies we had

571
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago domestic energy production, putting America

572
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: first again, and so we have a strong domestic policy

573
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: that exudes strength around the world. Our adversaries are laughing

574
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: at us. We need fiscal conservative policies. We are. We

575
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: governed really well and effectively at the state and local level.

576
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: Here in New Hampshire. We pass balanced budgets and we

577
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: cut deficits, and that's exactly what I will seek to

578
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 1: do as their member of Congress at the federal level

579
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: as well. Caroline, We obviously are rooting for you here.

580
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 1: We know you do a great job, and we got

581
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: a lot of folks listening. Who one we're encouraging to

582
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: turn out for you if they're by the way, is

583
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: it is New Hampshire Rights, New Hampshire Rights. You should

584
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: probably never say that again. It's granite Granite Staters is

585
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: what we call ourselves. We are the Granite State because

586
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 1: we have a lot of grantite here. It's one of

587
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: our top resources. So we are granite Staters. Wow, it's okay.

588
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: The New York guy is always good to get the

589
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: New Hampshire name wrong. But I'm gonna work on that

590
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: one going forward. Where can the Granite Staters, who we

591
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: are mobilizing behind you, where can they go to donate

592
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: to help out to get things going? Yes? Please, we

593
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: need all of the support we can get from granted

594
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: Staters and your listeners across the country too. This is

595
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: a top pickup for the House to take back the

596
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: House and remove the gabble from Nancy Pelosi's hand. So

597
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: go to my website, Caroline for Congress dot com. It's

598
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: Caroline with a K and would encourage everyone to chip

599
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: in and support. We would really appreciate it. We're up

600
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: against the Democrat machine, We're tied, and we got to

601
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: get the ball over the finish line over the next

602
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: twenty days. So thanks for having the young guys, and

603
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: I appreciate your support. Absolutely, we're gonna get it done.

604
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: You're gonna come on and celebrate the victory. Clay interesting

605
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: point here. It is called the Granite State because of

606
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: its abundance of granite. I think she just told us that.

607
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: I was literally googling it when she was saying that,

608
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: Is that what happened? Now? Literally you're repeating what Caroline

609
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 1: just told it. I was looking it up. I wanted

610
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: to know. Okay, she's gonna be, She's gonna win, and

611
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: she is going to be and this is a big deal.

612
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: And the same way that we were talking about Anna

613
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: Paulina Luna. It's gonna be a really big deal to

614
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: have a young, vibrant voice in Congress who is advocating

615
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: for sanity. And I think she's going to do a

616
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: really good job because she's from the Granite State and

617
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: it's called that because the granite there, right, I've heard

618
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: that before, someone told me that a minute ago. Apparently, yes,

619
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: I would. I would also say, look, we're having some

620
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: of these these up and coming Republicans on the show.

621
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: One because these are important seats, folks. I mean, no,

622
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: Dampshire is a state that's going to be in contention

623
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four again, so this really matters just

624
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: from a pure politics perspective, but from the broader narrative

625
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: side of things. This notion of the GOP is like

626
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: the old white you know, Wall Street Party or something.

627
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: It's like, we've got a whole crew of and you know,

628
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: we're not into the identity politics way Democrats are, but

629
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: it is just apparent if anyone's curious, we got a

630
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: lot of young women who are going to be stars

631
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: in the Republican Party, a lot of young women who

632
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: are also minorities, Myra Flores and a Polina, Luna, etc. Etc.

633
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: Who are going to be making real names for themselves.

634
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: I think in Republican politics now that the mainstream media

635
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: is going to ignore all that. But I think it

636
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: is interesting. I think it's important because it really does

637
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: go to show the power of ideas, because America unites

638
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: through the power of its ideas, the ideals of our country,

639
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: and they are of incredible value to you, no matter

640
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: what your background is. And it also is important because

641
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: it destroys the entire firmament of the Democrat Party right now,

642
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: which is founded Buck as you well know, I think

643
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: on the twin pillars of identity politics and cancel culture,

644
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: that is what the left believes in today communism. I

645
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: usually go with communism. Yes, sure, identity politics, cancel culture

646
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: that has to be blown up, has to be and

647
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: I think Caroline Lovett, annapolin A, Luna Marco Rubio is

648
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 1: already there. But those two congressional women winning their races

649
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:29,479
Speaker 1: in tight districts makes a big difference. No, he makes

650
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: a big difference. Sitting in a comfortable chair. Comfortable chair

651
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: can go a long way towards making you able to

652
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: work all day long, making you able to be as

653
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 1: productive as possible. And given so many people now have

654
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: new home offices, it's also sometimes difficult to figure out

655
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: what to give people for the holiday season. And I

656
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: hate to bring it up because I know a lot

657
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: of you're gonna be looking at your credit card bills.

658
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: Why are you gonna be looking at your bank statements

659
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: saying where did all the money go? A lot of

660
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna go to gifts. Wouldn't you rather give a

661
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: gift that really matters to someone and that they love

662
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: and think of fondly when they are using it. Well,

663
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: that's what you can do with the X chair right now.

664
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: Twenty one dollars a month. Don't want to put out

665
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: a lot of money, you can do it. Twenty one

666
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: dollars a month, less than a dollar a day. You

667
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: can own something can make the hours that you spend

668
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: at your desk, the hours that you spend at work,

669
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: more enjoyable than they otherwise would have. Talking about heating, cooling,

670
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: also massaging can make you if you already have a

671
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: little bit of a bad back, or maybe you're just

672
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: getting a little tight from sitting around in that chair

673
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: all day, can make a big difference. Buck and I

674
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: both have X chairs in our homes. I use mine

675
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 1: to write. I sit in it every single day as

676
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: I am writing. Makes a big difference for me, can

677
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: for you as well. There's an X chair for every style, height, budget,

678
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: whatever you need. It's out there. Check out all the

683
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: Go today, you're listening to Clay in Bucks Countdown to

684
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 1: Election Day podcast Intel for the informed voter. We've been

685
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: telling you about some critically important races, including in some

686
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 1: places that you may not expect it to be possible

687
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: for a Republican to be in such good shape. But

688
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 1: up right now in the polls, Tim Michael's the governor

689
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: of candidate rather pardon me, candidate for the governor of Wisconsin.

690
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 1: He is with us and he's running quite a campaign. Tim,

691
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: thanks for calling in, Okay, thanks for having me on

692
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: the show. It's quite an honor. And yeah, it's it's

693
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,760
Speaker 1: crazy that this race has not gotten more national attention.

694
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: Two things. Number one, it's the most expensive governor's race

695
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: in the entire country. And two, boy, if you'd like

696
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: to tune into a football game, and I know politics

697
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 1: is much more serious in football. Tune into a football

698
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 1: game with less than two minutes to go and the

699
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: score is tied. This is your race. We've been statistically tied.

700
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: It's crazy how close all the polls have been. Like

701
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: from a week ago until three or four weeks ago,

702
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 1: is like forty seven point three to forty seven point

703
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: three but finally now in the last week, we're starting

704
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 1: to see a little bit of separation, up a point,

705
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,439
Speaker 1: up a point and a half. One point one poll

706
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: has this up three point, so we're headed in the

707
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: right direction. It's a crazy expensive race. We're going to

708
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: take out an incumbent Democratic governor and it's going to

709
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 1: be a big win for the people to Wisconsin. We

710
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 1: appreciate you coming on and certainly alongside of Ron Johnson,

711
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: we are continuing to fight as hard as we can

712
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 1: to make sure people in Wisconsin make a choice to

713
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: return some sanity to their state. What are the number

714
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: one or two issues that you are hearing in particular

715
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: from voters that you are seeing that the incumbent governor

716
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: there has failed on that they want to switch and

717
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 1: allow you to be in charge. A great, great question.

718
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: And all over this state from the Superior Wisconsin, which

719
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: is up by Lake Superior of course, down to Kenosha,

720
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: over to Lacrosse by the Mississippi River, everywhere I go,

721
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 1: the number one issue by far as inflation. People are.

722
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: People are so concerned. We all know it. Across America.

723
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: Price of groceries is up, price that the pump is up.

724
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: People are very concerned. It's not a lot that a

725
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 1: governor can do. Right. We all get paid in US dollars,

726
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: and we all spend US dollars, and you know, the

727
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 1: federal policy got us into this mess of inflating the currency,

728
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 1: thus resulting in inflation. But I'm going to do massive

729
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 1: tax reform here in the state of Wisconsin. We're going

730
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: to put more money in people's pockets. Right on the heels.

731
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,240
Speaker 1: Right on the heels of the economic issue is crime,

732
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: and people are very concerned about crime all across Wisconsin,

733
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: from the inner city of Milwaukee out into the suburbs

734
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: and end up through northern Wisconsin. We're at a thirty

735
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: year high of crime in Wisconsin. And I believe the

736
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: reason we got here is because of a byproduct of

737
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,280
Speaker 1: the defund the police movement. We got through this crazy

738
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: spot in America where less police is better or cops

739
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 1: are bad. I don't buy that for a second. We're

740
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: going to flip the switch. We're going to back the

741
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: back the men and women in law enforcement. We're going

742
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 1: to get rid of the catch and release das here

743
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin, and we are going to change the attitude,

744
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: if you will, of the bad guys, because right now,

745
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: the bad guys are emboldened. They think that they're going

746
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: to get away with it. They're not going to serve

747
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 1: their terms. What do I mean by that? Governor Ebert

748
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: is here in Wisconsin. He made a campaign pledge four

749
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: years ago that he was going to cut in half

750
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: the prison population in Wisconsin, and he's well on his

751
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: way to doing it. He's released over a thousand convicted

752
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: felons on early parole. Some of them, you know, I

753
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: think about three hundred of them are convicted murderers, and

754
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: some of those are cop killers. Most shockingly, forty four

755
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 1: of them are child rapists released early on the streets

756
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin today. That that's the attitude of our current governor.

757
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: That is not what the people of Wisconsin want. I'm

758
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 1: going to back the blue, get rid of the soft das,

759
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: and we are going to get rule of law back

760
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: in the state of Wisconsin once again. And the bad

761
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: guys are going to know they're not going to get

762
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,800
Speaker 1: away with it anymore. They're going to know that the

763
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: governor himself, me wore a uniform. I'll be in a

764
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: military uniform for twelve years on active duty in the

765
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 1: US Army as an army ranger, and we're going to

766
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: flip the switch on crime here in Wisconsin and real quick.

767
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,359
Speaker 1: The third issue that I'm hearing everywhere is education. People

768
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: know that education today is now working. And I went

769
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: to public school in Wisconsin about an hour north of Milwaukee,

770
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: a little farm community. I went to a little myra

771
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: K through twelve and it worked for me. But that

772
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: was over forty years ago, and today the numbers in

773
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 1: education continue to get worse. The state test here in

774
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: Wisconsin is called the Forward Test. The numbers continue to

775
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: go down. The national test, the Nape Test, the education

776
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: scores continue to go down. And our current governor, he

777
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: spent his entire life, his an entire career in education.

778
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: I have a lot of respect for school teachers, but

779
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: he probably should have stayed a teacher and not got

780
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,760
Speaker 1: into administration. He was the head of all education in Wisconsin,

781
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: and now he's ahead of as governor, he's ahead of

782
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: the entire state. Numbers continue to get worse. So I'm

783
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: gonna do massive tax reform, put more money in people's pockets.

784
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 1: We are going to back the blue, get rid of

785
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: the softas. We're gonna get crime down in neighborhoods and communities,

786
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 1: and we are going to have better schools here in Wisconsin.

787
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna empower parents. We're gonna do a universal school

788
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,760
Speaker 1: choice and put parents back in charge of their children's education,

789
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: and stop the CRT and get back to the ABC's.

790
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: We're speaking to Tim Michaels. He's a candidate for governor Wisconsin,

791
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: and too our folks listening in Wisconsin on affiliates like Madison's,

792
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: WIBAAM in WISN in Milwaukee. This is an opportunity. You know,

793
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: we've been talking to Ron Johnson is running for Senate.

794
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: They're looking pretty good so far, but we could also

795
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 1: get a sane individual, a Republican. Here, we're speaking to

796
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: Tim Michaels in the governor's mansion of Wisconsin, and I'm

797
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,760
Speaker 1: just wondering you said it was. This is really interesting.

798
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: I mean, you lad with the statistic about the most

799
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 1: expensive governor's race in the tree. I'm assuming a lot

800
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 1: of the money that's coming in for your opponent. Is

801
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: it special delivery courtesy of New York, California and Washington,

802
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: d C. Where's the money coming from? Yeah, you got it,

803
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: it's all It's all the East coast West coast money

804
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: that's coming into Wisconsin. They're you know, they're all rallying

805
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: behind the incumbent Democratic governor because they know that this

806
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 1: seat is threatened and it's going down. So the usual suspects,

807
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,280
Speaker 1: if you will, you know, Steven Spielberg is sending million

808
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: dollars a week, and you know the cast of West

809
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: Wing is doing a show and they fundraise a million

810
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: dollars in one hour, and they're they're trying very hard here.

811
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,800
Speaker 1: That's a crazy, crazy expensive race. When my wife and

812
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 1: I made our decision to run very early in the year,

813
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,720
Speaker 1: back in February, we were told there'll be about thirty

814
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: five million dollars spent against the Republican Canada, it's now

815
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,959
Speaker 1: up to about eighty five million dollars. So they're pulling

816
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: out all the stops, doing everything they can to hold

817
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: this seat. But the good news is, and we're unfortunately

818
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: we're being outspent on the air two to one right now.

819
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: But the good news is it's not having the effect

820
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 1: that they want. We are up a little bit in

821
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 1: the polls. We have the momentum. Now we're going to

822
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: close strong. But it takes everybody in Wisconsin. It takes

823
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 1: everybody rallying together, when we're all rowing together, when we're

824
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: all working together to do the right thing, to elect

825
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: a conservative governor who's not a politician, who's a businessman,

826
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: who's an outsider, who's made tough decisions in his life,

827
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 1: who knows how to make plans, execute plans, solve problems,

828
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,760
Speaker 1: who's met a payroll as we have at our company

829
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: since before the past sixty two years, and who can

830
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 1: read a balance sheet and read an income statement. That's

831
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 1: the kind of leadership that we need in government right now.

832
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: The problem we have in government at the national level

833
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,439
Speaker 1: and at state levels is we have all these career

834
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: politicians in there that have never done anything well. We

835
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,280
Speaker 1: need to get back to the way our founding fathers

836
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: intended it to be. People from all walks of life,

837
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 1: take their real life experience, go to the capital, serve

838
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: a couple of terms, and then leave and let somebody

839
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 1: else come in. Not have these career politicians that are

840
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: in there for way too long, that are in way

841
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: over their head, like our governor here in Wisconsin, he's

842
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 1: never even run a lemonade stand, and people are frustrated.

843
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: I challenge people everywhere I go. Are you better off

844
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 1: than you were four years ago? And nobody can say

845
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: they are. With inflation up, with crime, price at the

846
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: pump is up, test scores are down. In schools, four

847
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: or one k's are down. People are really frustrated. They're

848
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 1: ready for change. They see in me a candidate who's

849
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: going to bring that change. I've been a bold leader

850
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: in my whole life. Twelve years on active duty in

851
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 1: the US Army as an airborne ranger, twenty five years

852
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: helping grow our company from when my dad passed away

853
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: twenty five years ago, from a few hundred employees to

854
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: over eight thousand a day. That's what people want. Bold

855
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 1: leadership of a problem solved, to get things done. And

856
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 1: I'm not beholden to anyone. I've made a pledge and

857
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: I've stuck to it. Never not taken any money from

858
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: packs or special interests or lobs. There's one person on

859
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: the face of the planet that I'll be beholden too,

860
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: and that's my wife, Barbara, my bride of twenty seven years. Tim.

861
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 1: If people want to help out in this final stretch here,

862
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: where should they go? Michael's forgovernor dot com that's our website,

863
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: and we have detailed plans on where I stand on

864
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 1: all the issues at Michael's blueprint dot com. But Michaelsfgovernor

866
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 1: Appreciate you, sir. Thank you. Have a great day. Bye.

867
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 1: The world is a turbulent place, my friends. The stock

868
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: markets react now in just the most up and down swings.

869
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: One thing leads to another, and your four oh one

870
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: K has gotten brutal last year or so. If you

871
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: not yet diversify your retirement accounts with precious metals like

872
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 1: gold and silver, it is definitely time to do so.

873
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 1: Pricing on those commodities is good right now, and they've

874
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: proven overtime over the long haul to hold their value,

875
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: especially when markets are volnable. I rely on the Oxford

876
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,280

877

Speaker 1: their best pricing guarantees, their ability to deliver real gold

878
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: or silver to your home. They're really on top of it.

879
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: When you buy gold, you're buying something real and tangible

880
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 1: that places your retirement and savings account on solid footing.

00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: podcast Candidates and common Sense. Joe Kent knows exactly what

887
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,280
Speaker 1: I am talking about. He is a Trump endorsed America

888
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 1: First congressional candidate in Washington's third district. You also Special

Speaker 1: Forces veteran gold star husband who served eleven combat tours.

890
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 1: I was reading about you, Joe in the New York

891
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: Times as they wrote I think it was in a

892
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: Sunday edition. You'll know, probably better than me, about all

893
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 1: of the veterans who are Republicans and who are decided

894
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: to enter into elective politics. And they tried to make

895
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: you and everybody else who was a Republican sound like

896
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 1: a crazy person. But I like badasses though, you know,

897
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: it was amazing. It was like, oh, and I thought, man,

898
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 1: this guy. I know that the intent was to try

899
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 1: and make everybody in this article sound awful, but I

900
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 1: was like, man, Joe sounds like a great guy. So

901
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 1: I'm glad that we have you on the program. Tell

902
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: us what you're seeing on the ground what the reaction

903
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: was to that hit piece. And then NYT, Yeah, thanks

904
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:31,320
Speaker 1: for for having me on, guys, I really appreciate it,

905
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: you know, I mean the New York Times, when they

906
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 1: come after you, it's usually a good sign, especially when

907
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: they run a kind of breathless article like that saying that, hey,

908
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: there's these two Green Berets and these two Navy seals

909
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: that went and served their country and you know, put

910
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: a lot of blood, sweat and tears into the War

911
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:50,240
Speaker 1: on Terror, and now they're kind of rejecting what the regime,

912
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: the mainstream meeting and especially the Biden administration is saying.

913
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 1: So you know, it's really reflecting here in the district,

914
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,479
Speaker 1: and I think throughout the country too. People are ready

915
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: for actually authentic candidates who are not just repeating the

916
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 1: same old, tired talking points. So we're actually going to

917
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 1: go and address the issues that they care about. And

918
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: Biden and Pelosi and you know governors like Jay Ensley,

919
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: they're destroying this country and so people want to see this.

920
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: Folks are actually gonna go and fight for them. You know, Joe,

921
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: we are, and thanks for being with us. It's it's

922
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: buck we're seeing in your neck of the woods up

923
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: in the Pacific Northwest. It does feel like there is

924
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,919
Speaker 1: a turning of the tide right now. We're certainly hoping

925
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: you're going to be a part of that with a

926
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:30,720
Speaker 1: big win on election day. We've been discussing Christine Draisen

927
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: in Oregon, possibly the governor just to your would be

928
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 1: the next governor possibly to your south. What happened in

929
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: recent years in Seattle certainly has had ramifications for perception

930
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 1: throughout that state and across the country about what Democrats

931
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 1: do without adult supervision in some places. What are the

932
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: biggest issues that when people come to you and they

933
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: say it's time. I mean, I know you're in your

934
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 1: district is competitive and has a fair number of Republicans, right,

935
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 1: so it's not quite the same switch that you might

936
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: see statewide in a place like Oregon. But what are

937
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 1: you seeing from the people that are coming out and

938
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: supporting you, What are they caring most about and what

939
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 1: are they saying, Yeah, you know, really, we just got

940
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: rid of a twelve year incumbent Republicans. She's one of

941
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: the ones that voted for the impeachment of President Trump.

942
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 1: So really, people are sick and tired of the uniparty.

943
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: They're sick and tired of somebody who has an ur

944
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 1: hat or a g hat on saying different things but

945
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: then really just giving us the same old nonsense. But

946
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: in particular right now, what the Biden administration has done,

947
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 1: what Pelosi has done for the last two years of

948
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:37,720
Speaker 1: one party rule, of crushing the economy through inflation. Everyone

949
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: remembers what the gas prices were just two years ago,

950
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: and they could afford to live, and what are the

951
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: Democrats done to relieve that? Absolutely nothing whatsoever. Crime is

952
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: another huge one. Were a stones throwaway. We're in southwest Washington,

953
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 1: so we're stones throwaway from Portland, Oregon. So the crime

954
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 1: that comes and flows up the I five porrit or

955
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 1: from Portland and then down south from Seattle, that directly

956
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,319
Speaker 1: affects our district. So the amount of Fenton all gotten

957
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 1: pumped into the district, The amount of petty crime and

958
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 1: violent crimes quite frankly stead of skyrocketed because Democrats here

959
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 1: at the local level are literally opening up our prisons

960
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,799
Speaker 1: and letting child killers roam the streets free. People are

961
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: furious about that. The cultural issues such as the sexualization

962
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: of our children that's on full display here because Planned

963
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 1: parenthood essentially runs the sex education in our high school.

964
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: So this gender affirming care, the mutilation and chemical castuation

965
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:28,320
Speaker 1: of children, that comes up frequently because people are furious

966
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 1: about this. So really they want to go and they

967
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 1: want to fight everything that one party rule is done

968
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,239
Speaker 1: to our nation. Joe Buck and I have talked a

969
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:40,840
Speaker 1: lot about Portland. You just mentioned, Seattle, San Francisco, Pacific Northwest,

970
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: for a long time was one of the most beautiful

971
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,319
Speaker 1: areas of our country. Yeah, it's been ruled by one

972
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 1: party for so long that finally that one party Democrat

973
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 1: rule is leading to collapse in these places, which are

974
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 1: otherwise fabulous places to live. You're obviously getting Republicans support,

975
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 1: but I bet you are seeing, Joe, a lot of

976
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 1: just disaffiliated, disaffected voters who may not have been that

977
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: politically active before, just looking around and saying things are broken,

978
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 1: We've got to fix it. This feels like a things

979
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: are broken, We've got to fix it election. Are you

980
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 1: seeing that where you are in the Pacific Northwest? Yes, certainly,

981
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 1: I mean absolutely so. I have people that come to

982
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: my events all the time that say, hey, I used

983
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 1: to be a Democrat. I even get quite a few

984
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: people that came and say, hey, look, I know you're

985
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 1: endorsed by Trump. A Trump's not my cup of tea.

986
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,280
Speaker 1: I didn't like him, couldn't stand the man, so therefore

987
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: I voted for Joe Biden. But I didn't vote for this.

988
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 1: I feel like I got bait and switched. I thought

989
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: we were going back to Romal'll see, and all we've

990
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: gotten is the extreme policies our governor out here, Jay Nsley,

991
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: he's basically as bad as Cuomo. We stayed locked down

992
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 1: until about last year, so businesses decimated, kids kept out

993
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,320
Speaker 1: of school. That drove a lot of people over to

994
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,839
Speaker 1: our side because they were, you know, quite frankly told

995
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 1: that they weren't allowed to even dissent from what the

996
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 1: Jay Innsley was dictating towards them. So we get a

997
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 1: lot of folks that come out to our events all

998
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 1: the times, and the er, hey I was a Democrat

999
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 1: or you know what, I just didn't make politics affected me,

1000
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 1: but now it's ruling my everyday life. So what you're

1001
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: saying and actually makes a lot of sense, because I

1002
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,239
Speaker 1: think the issues that we talk about, I don't think

1003
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: they're necessarily Republican or Democrat. I feel like they're just

1004
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 1: very common sense American. We're speaking of Joe Kent. He

1005
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: is running for Congress in Washington State's third congressional district.

1006
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of Washingtonians. I guess it's a

1007
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,839
Speaker 1: Washington And if you're in DC or you're in Washington State, right,

1008
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:30,439
Speaker 1: I gotta get this. You're nervous after Joey I messed

1009
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: up Granite State with New Hampsherian or something yesterday and

1010
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: that was not good. So I gotta make sure I

1011
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,919
Speaker 1: get this right. Um, But but onto something, onto something

1012
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 1: serious here. Um. You know you you served eleven combat

1013
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 1: deployments and know what it is to have to not

1014
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: only meet and fight the enemy, but to put yourself

1015
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,920
Speaker 1: and I know your your wife gave her life in

1016
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,360
Speaker 1: the service of country as well, so you understand what

1017
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 1: it is to be in war and the losses from

1018
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 1: war with the by did an administration approach to Ukraine?

1019
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: We were just talking before about possibility here of major escalation.

1020
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 1: It seems like something we need to be thinking about,

1021
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: but certainly don't want to happen. What do you see

1022
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,279
Speaker 1: going on? I mean, in essence, what are as a

1023
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 1: frontline warfighter, What do you want people to know after

1024
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 1: twenty years of what we've seen abroad and how that

1025
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: should be reflected in policy. I want people to remember

1026
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 1: where we were just twenty years ago, and we were

1027
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,800
Speaker 1: being told that we had to go take out Saddam

1028
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: Hussein because he had weapons of mass destruction and because

1029
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,239
Speaker 1: he was deeply linked with al Qaeda, and if we

1030
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 1: didn't fight Saddam over there, we'd have to fight him

1031
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: in al Qaida over here. And we found out that

1032
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,319
Speaker 1: that was all a bunch of a wise, we are

1033
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,880
Speaker 1: lied to, and we're being lied to once more, except

1034
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: for this time the consequences are still much higher. We're

1035
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 1: not talking about knock and Oppsidam, We're not talking about

1036
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,800
Speaker 1: the Taliban, Kadafi and that nonsense. We're talking about a

1037
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 1: nuclear armed country. Now. Look, Russia isn't the wrong, that

1038
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 1: shouldn't have gotten Ukraine started killing people, But we have

1039
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,760
Speaker 1: to ask ourselves is that worth going to a nuclear

1040
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,439
Speaker 1: war for? Don't we have more sophisticated tools we could

1041
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 1: be using to get Ukraine and Russia to the negotiating

1042
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 1: cable to prevent nuclear war and then also to prevent

1043
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: any kind of nefarious actions by Russia, but then also

1044
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 1: zooming out more broader scale. What did we do when

1045
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: we continue to escalate this conflict by sending plans and

1046
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: plans of dollars over there. Number One, we put our

1047
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,720
Speaker 1: country last. We have a wide open southern border. Americans

1048
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: are being killed by Fenton all every day, but we're

1049
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: being told we have to send eighty billion dollars over

1050
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 1: to Ukraine, and hey, if things go wrong, don't worry

1051
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 1: about it, they'll just be a nuclear exchange. By himself

1052
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: the other day said hey, we're closer to a nuclear

1053
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: war than we've been since the Cuban missile crisis. And

1054
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: yet no one in Washington, DC is saying, hey, let's

1055
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,440
Speaker 1: ease tensions and let's get to the negotiating table. And

1056
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 1: we've just handed this on a silver pladder. I think China,

1057
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 1: because China's come in and they've been able to bankroll Russia.

1058
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,080
Speaker 1: And so now we have the combination of Russia and

1059
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 1: China the Eurasian landmash where we are trying to prevent

1060
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 1: for the entire Cold War. So we need some actual

1061
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,880
Speaker 1: sober rational people right now to say, hey, the government

1062
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 1: has been lying to us for a very long time.

1063
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 1: The military industrial complex is very powerful. They have their

1064
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 1: own motivations. What we need to ensure is that the

1065
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: US's vital national security interests are being that number one

1066
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 1: to protect our people at our southern border and then

1067
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: to get us to negotiating table to prevent any kind

1068
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 1: of nuclear nuclear exchange. Joe, We're certainly rooting for you.

1069
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,839
Speaker 1: We want to see you in Congress. For people out

1070
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 1: there who are listening to us right now, not only

1071
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,719

1072
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: do to help? Yeah, so we're unfortunately we're in a

1073
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 1: war for resources. The Democrats just dumped like two million

1074
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 1: dollars into the race. So Joe Kent for Congress dot

1075

Speaker 1: Mark appreciate you joining us, sir, gentlemen, my pleasure. So

1117
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,400
Speaker 1: I'm hearing you can actually get this one done. Not

1118
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: a lot of national level attention, as you know, you're

1119
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 1: on about four hundred and thirty four hundred forty radio

1120
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: station right now across the United States, but who's counting,

1121
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:06,839
Speaker 1: So just tell everybody nationally speaking, or rather who's been

1122
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: looking at the national political landscape what's at stake in

1123
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,880
Speaker 1: New Mexico And why is it a place that a

1124
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,879
Speaker 1: lot of people right off as being pretty blue. Why

1125
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: is it you can actually pull this off? Well, I

1126
00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 1: think a couple of things, you guys. First of all,

1127
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,439
Speaker 1: when you look at this state as a whole, we're

1128
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 1: more conservative than a lot of these deep blue states.

1129
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: But what we have is a lot of people, and

1130
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,040
Speaker 1: especially northern New Mexico and even here in the Albuquerque area,

1131
00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: who once knew a Democratic Party that they could identify with.

1132
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 1: But what's happened is you've seen as the Democratic Party's

1133
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 1: gone farther and farther left, it doesn't align as much

1134
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 1: with the values of the people of this state. And

1135
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: then you have a governor who's done some things that

1136
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 1: have been absolutely inexplicable. In the middle of a huge

1137
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: crime wave, she goes and removes qualified immunity from police

1138
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,200
Speaker 1: and makes it easier to be a criminal than to

1139
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,280
Speaker 1: be a cop. She shuts us down as much as

1140
00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: any state in the country. And we're a small business state,

1141
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 1: so that crushed our small businesses. We've got crime that's

1142
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 1: completely out of control, and we have a school system

1143
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 1: that's fifty first in the country when you cant Washington, DC.

1144
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 1: So as you start to wrap all these things up

1145
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: and you look at the liberal governance it's in place

1146
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 1: right now. I think people are starting to realize the

1147
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:19,120
Speaker 1: Democratic Party that they used to vote for doesn't exist,

1148
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,640
Speaker 1: and if they don't put their foot down, we're heading

1149
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:23,240
Speaker 1: in the direction. I think that a lot of people

1150
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 1: are pretty frustrated with here, and I think that's why

1151
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 1: we've gotten so much momentum behind the campaign and why

1152
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:29,760
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna win this thing in a few weeks.

1153
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 1: First of all, I think a lot of people are

1154
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:36,480
Speaker 1: surprised how much in play New Mexico is not only

1155
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: for your race, which I think you're going to win

1156
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 1: and we appreciate you coming on, but also even in

1157
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:45,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty with all of the insanity, Trump made a

1158
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: good run in New Mexico, and I think New Mexico

1159
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 1: is right up there alongside of Nevada as a state

1160
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: that could flip in twenty twenty four. What are you

1161
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: seeing on the ground. You just kind of gave us

1162
00:58:56,840 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 1: a rundown. My college roommate as a doctor out in Albuquerque,

1163
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 1: he is died in the wool. Trump supporter. I'm to

1164
00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 1: give a shout out to Krishna who listens every single day.

1165
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 1: But what is occurring in New Mexico seems to be

1166
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: what's occurring everywhere, which is a rising tide of frustration

1167
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 1: over all of the insanity and Buck and I talk

1168
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: about this a great deal. New Mexico was one of

1169
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 1: the most restrictive COVID states in the country, and a

1170
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 1: lot of people don't know that. I'm sure that's also

1171
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 1: motivating some of this blowback that you're seeing as well. Oh,

1172
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,960
Speaker 1: Clay and absolutely does. He just talked about your doctor friend.

1173
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 1: Let me just give you one crazy example of what's

1174
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 1: happened here over the last two years. This governor signed

1175
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:45,040
Speaker 1: a bill which pushed up malpractice caps on doctors up

1176
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: to six million dollars in the state of New Mexico.

1177
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,360
Speaker 1: Give you an idea. If you go to Texas, you

1178
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 1: can sue up to two hundred and fifty thousand, and

1179
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: New Mexico you're going to be able to sue up

1180
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: to six million. So doctors like your friend are like,

1181
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 1: wait a minute, what are we doing? And all of

1182
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:01,960
Speaker 1: a sudden, wait times or ending here, and it's a mess.

1183
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 1: And then you talk about COVID. We were shut down

1184
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 1: as much as any state in the country, but yet

1185
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,720
Speaker 1: we were sixth in overall debt. And most people don't

1186
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 1: realize that because you guys were under the radar. But

1187
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 1: I think for our audience that's listening right now and

1188
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 1: would get frustrated and would hear so much about that.

1189
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,040
Speaker 1: I think people would like to know listening in Albuquerque

1190
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 1: on kiva AM and on KSVP out there as well

1191
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 1: give a sort of an indication of how crazy she

1192
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 1: was on COVID and how restricted you guys were. So

1193
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 1: it was crazy, guy, let me just give you this

1194
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:39,200
Speaker 1: in the worst part of it's the hypocrisy. But so

1195
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 1: we were shut down and our kids we were out

1196
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 1: of school as much as any kids in the country,

1197
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 1: and again we're last in the country. We lost forty

1198
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 1: percent of our small businesses during COVID. We're trying to

1199
01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 1: build that back now with no real plan to not

1200
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 1: only catch businesses back up to where they were, of

1201
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 1: a kids back up too. But here's the part that

1202
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 1: I think really frustrates people in this state. We had

1203
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 1: a governor who stood up on set Timber eighteenth, twenty twenty,

1204
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: and she wagged her finger in everybody's face and said

1205
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: we're in this together. Do not leave your house. That

1206
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: very day, she had her state police detail go rent

1207
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 1: an unmarked car from Albuquerque kick her up in Santa

1208
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:16,760
Speaker 1: Fe and then she and her friends went up to

1209
01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 1: Navajo Lake in northern New Mexico and partied for the weekend.

1210
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 1: Of course, did you, I guess you didn't stop by

1211
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 1: French Laundry with Javin Nusom just a really completely these

1212
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 1: people are such hypocrites that alone should get her ass

1213
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 1: kicked out of office. I mean that's infuriating. Oh, it

1214
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 1: is incurious, and it's not the only one playing buck.

1215
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:40,200
Speaker 1: We also had a situation we're shut down our small businesses, right,

1216
01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 1: they're all literally completely closed down. She calls up a

1217
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 1: friend at Lily Brock Jewelers in Albuquerque, comes down to Albuquerque,

1218
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 1: goes jewelry shopping while the rest of us are locked down,

1219
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 1: then goes back to Santa Fe. So it's issue after

1220
01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: issue where we see this hypocrisy where they live one

1221
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 1: way and then they expect us to live another way.

1222
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 1: And in New Mexico, in a state like this, which

1223
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 1: is Prifual, which is a very diverse state with a

1224
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 1: high Hispanic Native American populations. People just want to be

1225
01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 1: treated with respect and want to play by the same

1226
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 1: rules as their governor. And right now that's off the charts,

1227
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 1: not the case. And of course that doesn't even get

1228
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 1: into the sexual assault allegations speaking of whoa we're speaking

1229
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: of Ron ront. Sorry through me there for a second

1230
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:31,439
Speaker 1: with the well what sexual what was the sexual assault allegations? Well,

1231
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 1: so this was this is something two years ago when

1232
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 1: the governor actually is twenty and eighteen. The governor is

1233
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,919
Speaker 1: running to be elected the first time, and her communications

1234
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,840
Speaker 1: director and her and her staff were in the meeting,

1235
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 1: and during the meeting, she walks over to one of

1236
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 1: her staffers names. His name is James Hallamam and he's gay,

1237
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:52,920
Speaker 1: and she goes up to him. She pours water on

1238
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: his crotch and then she grabs his crotch and it

1239
01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 1: was clear for everyone to see. She ends up settling

1240
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,040
Speaker 1: with him for a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, makes

1241
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 1: them sign a non disclosure agreements to never talk about

1242
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,439
Speaker 1: it again. Two months later, she then signs a bill

1243
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 1: in the state of New Mexico outlawing non disclosure agreements,

1244
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: so she literally goes in flights in gets this guy

1245
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,439
Speaker 1: to be quiet by paying them off with campaign money,

1246
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 1: by the way, and then makes it so nobody else

1247
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: in the state of New Mexico can do what she

1248
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:27,200
Speaker 1: just did. You know, if you think the Michael Bloomberg

1249
01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:29,440
Speaker 1: story is bad, this is even worse. And this is

1250
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:33,120
Speaker 1: part of that narrative with her, especially where she feels

1251
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 1: like she's not accountable, it doesn't matter, and this is

1252
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:37,760
Speaker 1: another one of those gises. So, Mark, what is the

1253
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 1: crime situation like in your state? You alluded to that

1254
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: before you said there's been a crime wave. How bad

1255
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 1: has it been in what has the Democrat party in

1256
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 1: charge of I'm sure the major population centers, and then

1257
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:53,920
Speaker 1: of course state government with a Democrat in office, what

1258
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:57,120
Speaker 1: have they've been doing. Well, what they've been doing is

1259
01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: emptying out the prisons, which is exactly what we've seen.

1260
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:02,800
Speaker 1: Why are issues this We're the second most violent state

1261
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: in the country right now, behind Alaska, and we set

1262
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 1: a year over year records for murders in the Albuquerque

1263
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:11,800
Speaker 1: metro area of the past couple of years this governor

1264
01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:16,040
Speaker 1: took office, we had twenty six percent fewer people behind

1265
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,520
Speaker 1: bars than we did when she came into office, so

1266
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 1: they have no doubt been emptying out these prisons. And

1267
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: they give you an idea. A couple of weeks ago,

1268
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: the FBI had their largest sentinel bust ever in the

1269
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 1: South Valley of Albuquerque, more than a million pills. And

1270
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,200
Speaker 1: when they asked the drug cartel that was running this, hey,

1271
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:37,120
Speaker 1: why are you here? Because it's the Serenos drug cartel.

1272
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:40,200
Speaker 1: They're usually based out of California and then out of Mexico,

1273
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:42,919
Speaker 1: So why are you in New Mexico now? And they said,

1274
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:46,360
Speaker 1: because it's easy to be us here. We can do

1275
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,919
Speaker 1: what we want to do. And that's what soft laws

1276
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: have done. We got a governor who's been releasing people

1277
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 1: early from prison for the better part of two years

1278
01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 1: under COVID orders. It just stopped two weeks ago when

1279
01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:00,320
Speaker 1: we were hammering her with ads. And that's how the

1280
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 1: people who the state have just had enough. And these

1281
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,240
Speaker 1: are not political issues. I don't care if you're a

1282
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 1: Republican or democratling independent. You realize with prime out of control,

1283
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,280
Speaker 1: the way it is and the way they're operating, if

1284
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,440
Speaker 1: we don't do something about this, this is going to

1285
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,080
Speaker 1: become unlivable. And most people not only in Albuquerque, but

1286
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 1: across the state or realizing that Mark Ronchetty mark, where

1287
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 1: can people go if they want to donate help out

1288
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 1: your campaign in this final stretch. Yeah, look, we've seen

1289
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 1: a huge round swell support numbers look great and we

1290
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 1: would love your health. We are based on small dollar donors.

1291
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 1: We've had some of the biggest numbers and small dollar

1292
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 1: numbers across the country and you can go to Mark

1293
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:37,920
Speaker 1: Ronchetty dot com. It would be huge for us. We're

1294
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 1: going to roll up this thing and win it in

1295
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 1: three weeks and you guys, I appreciate talking to you.

1296
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:44,120
Speaker 1: By the way, it was interesting because I told my wife,

1297
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,520
Speaker 1: you know, must come on the show, and she's like,

1298
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 1: oh my god, you're going on with you with the

1299
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 1: OutKick guy in a porn star. And I was like,

1300
01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: wait a minute, wait a minute, that is not no. Seriously,

1301
01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,800
Speaker 1: I don't know you maybe down one small donation now

1302
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 1: mark out no, but come on kind of send us

1303
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 1: off the rails. You guys are incredible. We love LUK.

1304
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:06,320
Speaker 1: Thank you so much man. Good luck to you. Good

1305
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 1: luck to you in the final stretch here pull pull

1306
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 1: it through, please make it happen. Well, friends, talk to

1307
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:16,480
Speaker 1: you about a mother who came to a preborn pregnancy

1308
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: clinic considering abortion. After hearing the heartbeats and seeing not

1309
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:22,680
Speaker 1: just one, not just two, but three babies on the

1310
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 1: ultrasound screen, she chose life for Dylan, Denieri and Denard.

1311
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 1: Preborn has rescued thousands of babies like these three young

1312
01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 1: children by introducing them to their mothers on ultrasound. That

1313
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:35,680
Speaker 1: moment of seeing their children in the womb, it's a

1314
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 1: forever connection. Our goal is to rescue forty thousand babies

1315
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:41,680
Speaker 1: with your help and the great work that takes place

1316
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,880

1332
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:39,240
Speaker 1: re election Day podcast Intel for the Informed Voter. Senator

1333
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,400
Speaker 1: Marco Rubio of Florida, who was debating Val Demming's last night.

1334
01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: And I believe that we have Senator Rubio with us

1335
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 1: right now. Senator, appreciate you making the time. I know

1336
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,080
Speaker 1: it's a busy sprint here as we sit twenty days

1337
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:56,040
Speaker 1: out from election day. You had your debate yesterday or

1338
01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,520
Speaker 1: last evening with Val Demming's. We've played some of the

1339
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:03,560
Speaker 1: highlight of that. And as we break down this final

1340
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 1: twenty days, Senator, what are you seeing on the ground

1341
01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:09,600
Speaker 1: and what do you expect to see over these next

1342
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:13,320
Speaker 1: three weeks. Well, first of all, about last night, I

1343
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,640
Speaker 1: thought she frankly, I mean it's I mean, I've done

1344
01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:17,080
Speaker 1: a lot of these debates now, but I thought she

1345
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,320
Speaker 1: was the easiest one. When she was awful, I thought,

1346
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 1: I mean, she'd had no depth of knowledge on any

1347
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:25,280
Speaker 1: of these things, and the host really think about that

1348
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But the post, I mean, you can

1349
01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:31,479
Speaker 1: even see it in the talent that he asked the question.

1350
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:34,360
Speaker 1: So they tried to help and it didn't matter. So

1351
01:08:34,600 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 1: I think for the first time I saw her speak

1352
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:41,560
Speaker 1: at depth, kind of realized, you know, what an extremist

1353
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:43,800
Speaker 1: she is and a lightweight on a lot of these issues.

1354
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:45,360
Speaker 1: So I think that's going to be very helpful down

1355
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 1: the stretch here. But frankly, I mean for us at

1356
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:49,639
Speaker 1: this point, I feel like there's a lot of energy

1357
01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 1: and searge. Joe Biden and the Democrats control the country,

1358
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,720
Speaker 1: and in the last two years everything's worse, inflation's worse,

1359
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 1: gas prices, five million people have come across the border

1360
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,639
Speaker 1: at legal crime is surging across the country. Why would

1361
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:05,800
Speaker 1: they can Why would anyone you know in the right

1362
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 1: mind want to leave the same on charge? They have

1363
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,240
Speaker 1: done that over two years to our country. So I

1364
01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 1: think that's why you're seeing that just in Florida, really,

1365
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,760
Speaker 1: but across the country, this growing realization that we could

1366
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: be headed towards something pretty big here. If, of course,

1367
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 1: our voters come out and vote. That's the key. Senator

1368
01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 1: Rubia wanted to ask you if you could just tell

1369
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,519
Speaker 1: us when you have the Biden administration coming out today

1370
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:32,759
Speaker 1: giving a speech specifically on gas prices, it just feels

1371
01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:35,320
Speaker 1: like like whiplash at this point. I mean, he came

1372
01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 1: into office two years ago saying you canceling Keystone and

1373
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:42,120
Speaker 1: sending all these signals about how fossil fuels were terrible

1374
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 1: and climate change. He wanted unprecedented and got unprecedented spending

1375
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:50,360
Speaker 1: for Green New Deal style programs in what they're calling

1376
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 1: an inflation Reduction Act doesn't actually reduce inflation, but that's

1377
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:56,080
Speaker 1: par for the course for this administration. And now he's

1378
01:09:56,120 --> 01:10:00,519
Speaker 1: basically saying gas companies just lower your prices or else,

1379
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 1: and maybe we'll ask some other countries to produce more

1380
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 1: oil for us. Like it just doesn't seem to make sense. No,

1381
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:10,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't look I mean, I mean, I think there's

1382
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:14,439
Speaker 1: a combination of ideological extremism that controls their party and

1383
01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:18,400
Speaker 1: incompetence that even Democrat economists told them, if you put

1384
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 1: one point three one point nine tillion dollars into this economy,

1385
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 1: you're going to have inflation. Okay, on top of that,

1386
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 1: the common sense that tells you if we're not producing

1387
01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:30,360
Speaker 1: enough oil and other countries decide to cut back, there's

1388
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 1: there's gonna be less oil and the price is going

1389
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 1: to go up. And that's so we now find ourselves

1390
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:36,640
Speaker 1: in this position that he's put us in, which is unbelievable,

1391
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,920
Speaker 1: and that is, we can't produce any more oil because

1392
01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:42,080
Speaker 1: the lefties are going to go nuts, as they do

1393
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:44,080
Speaker 1: in his own party, So he can't we can't produce

1394
01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: any more oil. So we find ourselves begging on our

1395
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:49,560
Speaker 1: knees for the Saudies to produce more oil at the

1396
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 1: same time as he's depleting our strategic reserves. That's the

1397
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:55,360
Speaker 1: other piece that no one is understanding. Every week now

1398
01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 1: he's releasing from our strategic reserves. There are now dangerously low,

1399
01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:00,599
Speaker 1: the lowest I think they've been since there early eighties.

1400
01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 1: That's should teaching reserves there for like a war, for

1401
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 1: an emergency. It's not there to win mid terms for

1402
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 1: the for the Democrats, and so it's just you know,

1403
01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 1: you say it makes no sense, it doesn't, but I

1404
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 1: mean it makes sense for them politically because they've got

1405
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,000
Speaker 1: their base that will go bonkers if they produce more. Oh,

1406
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 1: but apparently are okay? Um if she they're apparently okay

1407
01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:24,960
Speaker 1: if if if they if we get it from Saudi Arabia. Senator,

1408
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:29,639
Speaker 1: let's presume that that Republicans take the House and the Senate,

1409
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:32,600
Speaker 1: because I think that's the way things are trending. And

1410
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 1: certainly you're still twenty days out, but let's presume that happens.

1411
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,160
Speaker 1: What do you think the first thing the Republican Congress

1412
01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 1: should address should be? In your mind, Well, there's no

1413
01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: doubt in my mind. The first thing we have to

1414
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:46,960
Speaker 1: deal with this the economy. Can I actually think a

1415
01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:48,760
Speaker 1: Republican win in the mid term it's going to have

1416
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:51,519
Speaker 1: a positive economic impact. Just that alone, I believe will

1417
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 1: change the sort of the way the markets behave and

1418
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:56,559
Speaker 1: so forth. But the first thing we have to start doing.

1419
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:58,040
Speaker 1: There's two things we need to do in the Senate.

1420
01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:00,519
Speaker 1: In particular, we need to stop more crazy people from

1421
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:04,439
Speaker 1: being nominated and appointed to do I think when it

1422
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:06,240
Speaker 1: comes overall, I think we need to pass things that

1423
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 1: makes sense that people understand, more oil production, things that

1424
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: will bring manufacturing back to this country and away from

1425
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:15,720
Speaker 1: China and obviously, make it very clear that we're not

1426
01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:17,800
Speaker 1: going to be spending any more government money to juice

1427
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:19,960
Speaker 1: sub inflation, all the things that need to be done,

1428
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,160
Speaker 1: and then dare him to veto it. And he might

1429
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:26,200
Speaker 1: mean he doesn't want to win reelection, you know, and

1430
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:28,439
Speaker 1: things of that nature, than he might, but dare him

1431
01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,200
Speaker 1: to to to veto those things and bear Democrats to

1432
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 1: stand in the way of it. Senator Rubio, we're speaking

1433
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:39,120
Speaker 1: center Mark Rubio for everybody of Florida, and the Biden

1434
01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:44,439
Speaker 1: administration going into this election obviously doesn't have a particularly

1435
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:48,360
Speaker 1: compelling narrative, and there are a number of candidates who

1436
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:52,759
Speaker 1: are hiding from the American people. I mean, your opponent

1437
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: at least did show up on a debate stage, so

1438
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 1: there's that. There are some others who are avoiding debates

1439
01:12:58,400 --> 01:13:02,280
Speaker 1: all together. It is the crime issue, from what you

1440
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:05,839
Speaker 1: talk to people about after the economy, the single biggest

1441
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:10,200
Speaker 1: mobilizer and interesting in this election, or is it immigration?

1442
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 1: We know economy is faring away number one, But what's

1443
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,600
Speaker 1: the number two issue? Based on what the people of

1444
01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:18,280
Speaker 1: Florida are telling you when you're out there talking to them, Yeah,

1445
01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:20,120
Speaker 1: let me tell you. Let's look at these polls, they

1446
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: say crime, the economy, and play. I mean they say

1447
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:25,760
Speaker 1: they talk about inflation, the economy, jobs. That's all one issue.

1448
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:28,479
Speaker 1: It's the economics, and the people are very worried about

1449
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:30,920
Speaker 1: They think we're heading towards a recession. So that clearly

1450
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,640
Speaker 1: is on top of everyone's mind. Now in Florida, we

1451
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 1: don't have crazy people in charge of our state government.

1452
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:37,639
Speaker 1: We have a good governor. We've got a great state

1453
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:40,519
Speaker 1: legislature as well, and so crime is an issue like

1454
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,080
Speaker 1: it is anywhere else. But we do watch on television

1455
01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:45,280
Speaker 1: or what's happening all over the country and all these

1456
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 1: major cities in the meltdown going, we do have crime

1457
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:53,480
Speaker 1: here as well. And we are deeply impacted by immigration.

1458
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 1: We have had five million people in just two years

1459
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,719
Speaker 1: entered this country illegally, two million in the last twelve months.

1460
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,759
Speaker 1: That's five thousand people a day, okay, And we carry

1461
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:05,400
Speaker 1: a lot of that burden here in the state of Florida.

1462
01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 1: So it does Texas, Arizone in places like that that

1463
01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,920
Speaker 1: Florida does. So those are clearly dominant issues. And then

1464
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:12,680
Speaker 1: I think the more broader sense, if you wrap it

1465
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 1: all together, the broader senses that if these same people

1466
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: think in power for a couple more years, they're going

1467
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:19,800
Speaker 1: to destroy the country. So to me, that is sort

1468
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:21,960
Speaker 1: of the underlying theme that's driving a lot of people

1469
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 1: to vote, hopefully for Republican candidates, so we could at

1470
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:27,479
Speaker 1: least put a stop to this not and then hopefully

1471
01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 1: we begin to do some good things for the country.

1472
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:33,639
Speaker 1: No doubt, Senator, when you look at Buck mentioned, the crime,

1473
01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:37,120
Speaker 1: the border, inflation, all of these things are of massive

1474
01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:40,400
Speaker 1: importance people out there who aren't in Florida. Because I

1475
01:14:40,439 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 1: think you're going to beat your opponent pretty handily, and

1476
01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:46,000
Speaker 1: certainly everybody in Florida needs to go vote. But how

1477
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,120
Speaker 1: much different you've been in the Senate for a while now,

1478
01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:49,920
Speaker 1: And I think it's important to hammer this home to

1479
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 1: people all over the country who are listening to us.

1480
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:55,160
Speaker 1: How much difference is there being in the majority or

1481
01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:58,280
Speaker 1: the minority in the Senate for you having been on

1482
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,519
Speaker 1: both sides of that equation. Well, there's a lot of

1483
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: person of all. I give you one example. These agencies

1484
01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 1: are much more responses and they don't just ignore you

1485
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,400
Speaker 1: or blow you off. They may not do what you want,

1486
01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 1: but you can at least get answers and create some

1487
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 1: real pressure on them that you're in the majority. That's

1488
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,240
Speaker 1: number one in the Senate. The practical reality of the

1489
01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:18,080
Speaker 1: majority is Biden can't all of a sudden nominate some

1490
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,479
Speaker 1: lunatic or a Marxist as has happened now over the

1491
01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 1: last couple of years to these key positions on his

1492
01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:28,760
Speaker 1: cabinet or just that's that's a direct reality. The third

1493
01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:32,559
Speaker 1: is you don't have a Chuck Schumer controlling what comes

1494
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:34,479
Speaker 1: to the floor, what we're voting on, what we'll so

1495
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,880
Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about wasting weeks and weeks

1496
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,920
Speaker 1: of time debating how we're going to fix a fake

1497
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:43,160
Speaker 1: vote or suppression crisis, or how we're going to deal

1498
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:45,760
Speaker 1: with an inflation reduction act that has nothing to do

1499
01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:48,720
Speaker 1: with inflation. I mean, those terrible things don't come to pass.

1500
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,240
Speaker 1: They're not forced upon us on the floor as show

1501
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:54,400
Speaker 1: votes or in many cases, as actual legislation. We're not

1502
01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 1: constantly being threatened with They're going to get rid of

1503
01:15:56,360 --> 01:16:01,000
Speaker 1: the filibuster and practice. All those things go away. So

1504
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:03,840
Speaker 1: the practical reality of it is extraordinary, and I think

1505
01:16:03,880 --> 01:16:06,679
Speaker 1: it forces the White House to start doing some common

1506
01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,680
Speaker 1: sense things on some of these key issues as they

1507
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:12,200
Speaker 1: head into their own re election cycle, and as that

1508
01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:15,360
Speaker 1: political pressure comes to bear and hopefully will be passing

1509
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:18,559
Speaker 1: things that make sense that people support. I think you'll

1510
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:20,360
Speaker 1: have a choice to make, not unlike with Bill Clinton

1511
01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:23,240
Speaker 1: faced than ninety four after getting crushed in the midterms.

1512
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 1: Senator Rubio, you're a lifelong Floridian, and obviously the southwest

1513
01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:30,600
Speaker 1: coast of Florida just got hit with a with a

1514
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 1: particularly brutal storm. But the recovery efforts that we've seen

1515
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:37,960
Speaker 1: Clay mentioned in the last hour Santabelle Island, the causeway

1516
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,960
Speaker 1: going up seems like it is. It has been more

1517
01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:46,120
Speaker 1: efficient and more together, if you will, than any that

1518
01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 1: I can remember. Is that your impression, I mean, governor

1519
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:52,080
Speaker 1: of santist is leading this effort. He gives all credit

1520
01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 1: to the first responders and the technicians and the linemen

1521
01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:58,280
Speaker 1: and everybody who are actually doing the work. What have

1522
01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:04,479
Speaker 1: you seen in this recovery for Florida, Well, for putting

1523
01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:06,479
Speaker 1: the stuff together. They get that wrong. The whole thing

1524
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,320
Speaker 1: falls apart. I think local officials, the first responders, everybody

1525
01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:11,720
Speaker 1: else as well, I'll say, the utility companies as well.

1526
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 1: You know, power people were without power there's no doubt

1527
01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:16,080
Speaker 1: about it. But you have to understand, within eight days

1528
01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:18,679
Speaker 1: of this storm, eight nine days of the storm, ninety

1529
01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:21,560
Speaker 1: something percent, maybe up to ninety five percent of the

1530
01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:24,680
Speaker 1: homes and businesses that could be turned on were turned on.

1531
01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:26,680
Speaker 1: You know, there are some that are completely the story.

1532
01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:28,759
Speaker 1: You can't restore the power to a customer that doesn't

1533
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:31,719
Speaker 1: exist anymore because the business has gone. That's extraordinary because

1534
01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:33,680
Speaker 1: that changes everything. When the power is back on, life

1535
01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:38,200
Speaker 1: against kids just started going back to school this week again.

1536
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 1: So I remember, Look, we used to have storms in

1537
01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:43,479
Speaker 1: Florida and mid two thousands or whatever. We were without

1538
01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:47,320
Speaker 1: power in some fifteen twenty five days, and without power

1539
01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,960
Speaker 1: nothing worths. The gas stations don't work, the ATMs don't work,

1540
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:52,760
Speaker 1: your cell phone doesn't work. People are running generators. We

1541
01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:54,519
Speaker 1: had a lot, we get a lot of injuries after

1542
01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 1: a storm because of stuff like that. We don't have

1543
01:17:57,600 --> 01:17:59,439
Speaker 1: any of that. So I think that's been extordinary. Now

1544
01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 1: they rebuild in some of these areas, it's going to

1545
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:04,880
Speaker 1: take a long time. This was catastrophic, complete total loss

1546
01:18:05,240 --> 01:18:09,360
Speaker 1: of small businesses, of homes, frankly unfortunately, of live people

1547
01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:11,840
Speaker 1: that died, and one of the areas that doesn't get

1548
01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 1: enough attention. You know, there's not any CNN trucks over

1549
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:18,080
Speaker 1: there is in the agriculture areas of our state. Our

1550
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,519
Speaker 1: agriculture was hit very, very hard. I was with him

1551
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:22,680
Speaker 1: last week. We are going to have citrus crop that's

1552
01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,880
Speaker 1: going to get wiped out. And these people were already

1553
01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 1: on the edge because of unfair trade practices from Mexico,

1554
01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:32,080
Speaker 1: because of government regulations on how much sugar orange juice

1555
01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:33,840
Speaker 1: has to have in in order to be qualified as

1556
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:36,320
Speaker 1: orange juice, all these kinds of things. They were already

1557
01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:39,760
Speaker 1: facing citrus greening. So I am very worried about our

1558
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:43,320
Speaker 1: agriculture and industries ability to survive because they have really, really,

1559
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 1: really taken it hard. They basically we think the damage

1560
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:48,040
Speaker 1: assessment is going to be pretty high in terms of

1561
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:51,560
Speaker 1: how much of this year's crop was lost. And this

1562
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:53,400
Speaker 1: is now, it's not the third time it happens in

1563
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:56,960
Speaker 1: the decade. Much less serious question to close here with you,

1564
01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:00,680
Speaker 1: Senator Rubio. Your dolphins, they started off three and ozer.

1565
01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:05,280
Speaker 1: They have been the center of the NFL universe over

1566
01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:09,360
Speaker 1: two concerns the last several weeks. They're now sitting at

1567
01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 1: three and three stealers, I believe if I'm correct, Big

1568
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:16,559
Speaker 1: game this weekend. How would you assess the first six

1569
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:19,000
Speaker 1: weeks of the Dolphin season. Well, I think the key is,

1570
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, we're hopefully have run out of quarterbacks to

1571
01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:26,360
Speaker 1: get concussions. Yeah, because Two, I had that thing, and

1572
01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:28,479
Speaker 1: then Teddy Bridgewater. This is the most interesting one the

1573
01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:30,640
Speaker 1: NFL now has policy is some guy sitting in that

1574
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 1: box and he determines whether he saw you stumble or not,

1575
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:35,719
Speaker 1: and so and the other thing that made me chuckle.

1576
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't examine too, and I'm not

1577
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:39,000
Speaker 1: a doctor, but all of a sudden, all the same

1578
01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:41,360
Speaker 1: people that were telling us don't play doctor when it

1579
01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 1: comes to COVID and give your opinion on stuff, you're

1580
01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:46,559
Speaker 1: not qualified. Everybody's now a concussion next week. Yea plutting

1581
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:49,120
Speaker 1: people that have ever examined the guy. And so you

1582
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,320
Speaker 1: get all this stuff going on. So my hope is

1583
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:52,920
Speaker 1: that we will be able to go back to the

1584
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:55,360
Speaker 1: time here soon where two is back on the field.

1585
01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:58,559
Speaker 1: I'll take Teddy Bridgewater for that matter, just a quarterback

1586
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:01,080
Speaker 1: that can practice all weekends, start the game and not

1587
01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:02,639
Speaker 1: have to leave in the middle of the game because

1588
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 1: he gets knocked out of the game. I think if

1589
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: we can do that and get back on track, this

1590
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:07,320
Speaker 1: team is going to look a lot like the team

1591
01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:09,680
Speaker 1: that started out three and no very explosive. You know.

1592
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:12,559
Speaker 1: I want to say, there's only so much bad luck

1593
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:14,320
Speaker 1: in the world, and we've used all of this here

1594
01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:16,160
Speaker 1: in the first six weeks, and hopefully now we're going

1595
01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:18,840
Speaker 1: to be getting you know, a different direction. Going sent

1596
01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:21,479
Speaker 1: a Rubio. We know you're you're ahead inside of the polls.

1597
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:24,640
Speaker 1: Just if anyone wants to make sure that you have

1598
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,639
Speaker 1: a resounding victory. We have a lot of Floridians listening

1599
01:20:27,680 --> 01:20:30,040
Speaker 1: all across the state right now. Where should they go?

1600
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:32,320
Speaker 1: What can they do? Yeah, I mean, thank you for

1601
01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:34,519
Speaker 1: bringing that up, but please don't take that for granted. Okay,

1602
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:37,000
Speaker 1: right now the media is like, I mean, we wiped

1603
01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 1: the store with Valdam existed in this debate, but if

1604
01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:41,920
Speaker 1: you watch the news, you make it sound they even

1605
01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:43,519
Speaker 1: they have to say, oh, it was a tie. It

1606
01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:45,760
Speaker 1: wasn't people that saw it. But I need help because

1607
01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 1: we got to continue to communicate and show the difference devoters.

1608
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:51,639
Speaker 1: Please go to my website Marco Rubio dot com. That's

1609
01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:54,680
Speaker 1: my website. Because we need money. She's raising a lot

1610
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:56,439
Speaker 1: of money and she'll raise a lot more money because

1611
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:58,880
Speaker 1: all these liberal lefties from all over the country they

1612
01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:02,160
Speaker 1: hate Florida. Florida's embarrassed them and they would love nothing

1613
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 1: more than to flip the Senate seat. And so I

1614
01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,719
Speaker 1: do need everyone's help. Please go on my website Marco

1615
01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:09,960
Speaker 1: Rubio dot com and give as you can send a Rubio.

1616
01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:11,800
Speaker 1: Appreciate you making the time Sarah good to talk to you.

1617
01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:16,479
Speaker 1: Thank you for having me on. Guys, my friends, If

1618
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:19,760
Speaker 1: unborn babies could speak, what would they say? The heartbeat

1619
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,400
Speaker 1: is the voice of the preborn. I want to tell

1620
01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:24,439
Speaker 1: you about a mother who came to a preborn pregnancy

1621
01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: clinic considering abortion, but after hearing the beautiful heartbeats and

1622
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 1: not seeing just one, not two, but three babies on

1623
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:36,120
Speaker 1: her ultrasound, she chose life for Dylan, Denier and Denard.

1624
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:40,879
Speaker 1: Preborn has rescued hundreds and thousands of babies by introducing

1625
01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:43,080
Speaker 1: them to their mothers on an ultrasound, and it is

1626
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:48,000
Speaker 1: a divine connection. Our goal is to rescue forty thousand babies.

1627
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:51,280
Speaker 1: One ultrasound is just twenty eight dollars and now through

1628
01:21:51,320 --> 01:21:54,240
Speaker 1: a match your gift is doubled. Any gift will help,

1629
01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:56,680
Speaker 1: and all donations are tax deductible. You just heard from

1630
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,679
Speaker 1: congressional candidate Annapolina Luna last Hour, a friend of mine

1631
01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 1: for years now, that her mother was pressured for an abortion,

1632
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,479
Speaker 1: she didn't have it, and now look what she's doing

1633
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:09,200
Speaker 1: with the world. Look what her life has meant to

1634
01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:12,880
Speaker 1: so many people. Any gift you can give now will help.

1635
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:16,880
Speaker 1: All donations are tax deductible. If you have the means,

1636
01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:20,200
Speaker 1: Please consider even a leadership gift that's seventy five hundred

1637
01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,639
Speaker 1: dollars that'll be matched. It'll be matched so you get

1638
01:22:22,640 --> 01:22:27,280
Speaker 1: a full ultrasound machine. Think of how many babies lives

1639
01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:30,439
Speaker 1: that can save. All we're doing is showing mothers the

1640
01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 1: divine connection that heartbeat between baby and mother, and that

1641
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:38,479

1648
01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:03,559
Speaker 1: preborn dot com slash bu ck. You're listening to Clay

1649
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,080
Speaker 1: in Bucks Countdown to Election Day podcast Intel for the

1650
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:12,559
Speaker 1: Informed Voter. Remember when Stacy Abrams and Joe Biden said

1651
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:16,080
Speaker 1: that the new voting bill in Georgia was Jim Crow

1652
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 1: two point zero and Joe Biden even tried to say,

1653
01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:22,719
Speaker 1: because he's an idiot, this is not even Jim Crow,

1654
01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:25,560
Speaker 1: this is Jim Eagle. Do you remember that line that

1655
01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:27,120
Speaker 1: he tried to try it out and everybody's like, what,

1656
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:31,040
Speaker 1: what are you even talking about? So Georgia set records

1657
01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 1: in the primary season for the number of people who

1658
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:38,479
Speaker 1: showed up to vote. Georgia set a new record for

1659
01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,800
Speaker 1: first day early voting turnout in a mid terms. I'm

1660
01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:46,920
Speaker 1: reading from Blaine Alexander, who's sharing Georgia data. Yesterday's turnout

1661
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:51,560
Speaker 1: is nearly double first day voting in twenty eighteen and

1662
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:55,360
Speaker 1: is approaching the twenty twenty numbers. And obviously twenty twenty

1663
01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:58,559
Speaker 1: was a presidential year. So the question I would ask

1664
01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:02,160
Speaker 1: for everybody out there, is anybody ever gonna ask Joe

1665
01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,200
Speaker 1: Biden and Stacy Abrams to apologize to the people of

1666
01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:10,000
Speaker 1: Georgia for costing them the Atlanta Braves All Star Game

1667
01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:13,360
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, Remember pulled this game because they said

1668
01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:15,920
Speaker 1: this was voters suppression and this was Jim Crow two

1669
01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:19,800
Speaker 1: point zero and will any media even hold any of

1670
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:22,240
Speaker 1: these people accountable? I just want you to think about that,

1671
01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:25,679
Speaker 1: and I also want you to think about this. Carry

1672
01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:29,080
Speaker 1: Lake is I believe and I've said it Buck, And

1673
01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to throw shade on any other candidates,

1674
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:36,320
Speaker 1: but I think she is the single best statewide candidate

1675
01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:39,680
Speaker 1: running for office that is not already there. Right We've

1676
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:44,320
Speaker 1: got a lot of incumbents, single best statewide candidate that

1677
01:24:44,439 --> 01:24:48,719
Speaker 1: Republicans have put forward in any governors or Senate race

1678
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:51,439
Speaker 1: this fall. There's a lot of good ones. Not trying

1679
01:24:51,479 --> 01:24:54,280
Speaker 1: to cast dispersions upon them, but I think Harry Lake

1680
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,639
Speaker 1: is the best. And I think one of the reasons

1681
01:24:56,680 --> 01:25:00,559
Speaker 1: she's the best, Buck is she understands media better than

1682
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:03,920
Speaker 1: almost any politician out there. And what she's been doing

1683
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:08,679
Speaker 1: is she has her own camera crew following her around,

1684
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:13,240
Speaker 1: recording every interaction that she has with voters, every interaction

1685
01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:16,760
Speaker 1: that she has with the media, so they cannot distort

1686
01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:20,839
Speaker 1: what she is saying. It's very smart. There's tangible evidence

1687
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:24,520
Speaker 1: it's her very smart, and I would encourage every Republican

1688
01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 1: out there to be doing the same so that when

1689
01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:30,160
Speaker 1: you have an interview and they take two minutes from

1690
01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 1: you out of twenty minutes that you talk to them,

1691
01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:35,800
Speaker 1: you can say, well, actually, here's the full interview. This

1692
01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:38,679
Speaker 1: is not the real substance of our conversation. It's also

1693
01:25:38,840 --> 01:25:45,759
Speaker 1: smart because it reminds the candidate you are always You're

1694
01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 1: always on display, you're always being reported, so there's no offensiot.

1695
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:51,559
Speaker 1: It's like you and me with microphones in front of us.

1696
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,920
Speaker 1: The microphone is always on, right, it's always on whatever

1697
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 1: you're saying, even if it's not technically on, it's on.

1698
01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:59,960
Speaker 1: Same thing applies for and even more so for political candidate.

1699
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,400
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have opposition just trying to sneak in

1700
01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:04,720
Speaker 1: there and say something. And and they're really hoping. I

1701
01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:08,320
Speaker 1: think they've been hoping all along for a Carrie Lake

1702
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:13,800
Speaker 1: slip up instead Clay. On issues like election integrity and

1703
01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 1: election deniers, they get situations like this one here. I mean,

1704
01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 1: who is she talking to? By the way, because you

1705
01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:24,760
Speaker 1: found this club, I'm not sure which which um medium meant?

1706
01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:27,680
Speaker 1: There's a rot this video? Yeah, it's a reporter, but

1707
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:30,920
Speaker 1: there's like a row of reporters that are lined up there,

1708
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:33,800
Speaker 1: and she gets asked, as you'll hear, about being an

1709
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:37,360
Speaker 1: election denier. And this is what CNN try to throw

1710
01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:38,880
Speaker 1: one thing in here. By the way, they love the

1711
01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:41,920
Speaker 1: term denier, which they also use for climate They'll say

1712
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:49,280
Speaker 1: climate change denier because of the mental connection to Holocaust denier.

1713
01:26:49,479 --> 01:26:51,680
Speaker 1: That's really this is why they like to throw the

1714
01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:55,760
Speaker 1: denier thing, the denier word to people all the time

1715
01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:59,080
Speaker 1: whenever they can, because it's meant to you know, it's

1716
01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:02,720
Speaker 1: meant to undermine. I mean, there's a very reason to

1717
01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:07,080
Speaker 1: note that there is a certainty and you are denying

1718
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 1: that certainty. So they are claiming that they are objective

1719
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:12,800
Speaker 1: and they're just saying, oh, you're an election denier. But

1720
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:16,080
Speaker 1: in reality, that is a values based language choice that

1721
01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:19,559
Speaker 1: presumes that what you are saying is a lie, which

1722
01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:23,960
Speaker 1: is not true. And so Carry Lake had some receipts.

1723
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:27,599
Speaker 1: Just sit back and enjoy this. And I would say,

1724
01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,760
Speaker 1: if you're a Republican candidate out there, you need to

1725
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:34,080
Speaker 1: be studying what Carry Lake has done in this governor's

1726
01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:37,280
Speaker 1: race in Arizona, and you need to be emulating it now.

1727
01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 1: Most candidates are not going to be as skilled as

1728
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:41,559
Speaker 1: she is because they haven't done twenty plus, thirty plus

1729
01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:44,600
Speaker 1: years whatever the heck it is now of live television,

1730
01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:48,920
Speaker 1: like she has four years all over Arizona. People knew

1731
01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:52,600
Speaker 1: her already. She's very poised, she's very telligent, she's fantastic

1732
01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:56,200
Speaker 1: at what she does, but she's also really good on

1733
01:27:56,320 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 1: her feet, and she's fearless. Listen to this talk about

1734
01:28:00,479 --> 01:28:04,080
Speaker 1: election deniers. Here's one hundred and fifty examples of Democrats

1735
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,920
Speaker 1: denying election results. Oh wow, look at this. This is

1736
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:12,080
Speaker 1: from Joe Biden's press secretary. Reminder Brian Kemp stole the

1737
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:16,519
Speaker 1: gubernatorial election from Georgians and Stacy Abrams Democrats saying that

1738
01:28:16,720 --> 01:28:19,760
Speaker 1: is that an election denier? Oh look at this. Just

1739
01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:23,280
Speaker 1: heard Republican Ryan Costello said it would be difficult for

1740
01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 1: Stacy Abrams to win because she lost her state bid.

1741
01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:29,120
Speaker 1: But yet she's still claiming she never lost. This is

1742
01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:32,600
Speaker 1: a Hillary Clinton. Trump is an illegitimate president? Is she

1743
01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:36,200
Speaker 1: an election denier? This one says was the twenty sixteen

1744
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:41,000
Speaker 1: election legitimate? It? Now definitely is a question worth asking.

1745
01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:44,960
Speaker 1: That's the Los Angeles Times. So It's okay for Democrats

1746
01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:48,800
Speaker 1: to question elections, but it's not okay for Republicans. It's

1747
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:53,679
Speaker 1: a kroc a bs it goes on. It's fantastic buck.

1748
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:57,320
Speaker 1: She is a stud I just want everyone to know this,

1749
01:28:57,640 --> 01:28:59,880
Speaker 1: be prepared for this right now. First of all, Yet

1750
01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:04,080
Speaker 1: she's a rising star in the Republican Party. That much

1751
01:29:04,160 --> 01:29:06,760
Speaker 1: is very clear at this point. But to the point

1752
01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:10,439
Speaker 1: she makes here about how Democrats have been denying elections

1753
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:12,920
Speaker 1: for the last twenty years. Oh, yeah, this, this is

1754
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,040
Speaker 1: what they do whenever it's a close election that they

1755
01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 1: you know, the whole Russia collusion lie was just a

1756
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:25,280
Speaker 1: form of legal veneer for election denial. That's all it was.

1757
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:29,360
Speaker 1: It was, Oh, there was a conspiracy with Rusholah that

1758
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:33,200
Speaker 1: was meant to undermine the legitimacy of the Trump administration

1759
01:29:33,439 --> 01:29:36,120
Speaker 1: from day one. I was there in New York City

1760
01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:39,400
Speaker 1: when there were marches in the streets of lunatics with

1761
01:29:39,640 --> 01:29:44,920
Speaker 1: blue hair and no prospects of actually finding anybody who

1762
01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:48,840
Speaker 1: wants to spend time with them, walking around shrieking about

1763
01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 1: how he's not my president, not my president, screaming this stuff.

1764
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:57,400
Speaker 1: They were trying to undermine Trump from the very beginning.

1765
01:29:57,760 --> 01:30:01,920
Speaker 1: With that form of election denial. But after this mid

1766
01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:04,560
Speaker 1: term there will be all of a sudden for a

1767
01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:07,640
Speaker 1: period of time to help the bruised egos and the

1768
01:30:07,720 --> 01:30:11,240
Speaker 1: wounded minds of the Libs, they'll be oh, but it

1769
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:13,680
Speaker 1: turns out that you know, there are some issues with

1770
01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:16,080
Speaker 1: the election machines or orbit or blue. You know you're

1771
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:18,920
Speaker 1: gonna see it. You get they have no principles, folks.

1772
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:20,639
Speaker 1: So the moment I know you're thinking, come on, buck,

1773
01:30:20,720 --> 01:30:23,920
Speaker 1: that's two. No, they'll do that. There will be I'm

1774
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:27,519
Speaker 1: not saying that they'll be explicit denial of any one race.

1775
01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:31,519
Speaker 1: Perhaps that will happen, but they'll questions will be allowed again.

1776
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:34,599
Speaker 1: You'll be allowed to question the outcome of an election.

1777
01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:36,559
Speaker 1: That's what they'll start to say, because they don't care.

1778
01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:40,160
Speaker 1: This is why landslides are important, and this is part

1779
01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:42,080
Speaker 1: of what I'm working on in my new book, To

1780
01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 1: be fair. How many elections have taken place for president

1781
01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:49,880
Speaker 1: that both sides have said, Okay, no Shenanigans, this feels

1782
01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:54,400
Speaker 1: like a win Obama oh eight. I would argue that

1783
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:58,759
Speaker 1: that was the last time both parties said, hey, Barack

1784
01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:03,640
Speaker 1: Obama won the election and that was the result. And

1785
01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:07,719
Speaker 1: when you lose close. Because Democrats lost close in sixteen

1786
01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:11,200
Speaker 1: by the numbers, Republicans lost close in twenty. It's like

1787
01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:14,439
Speaker 1: missing a field goal in a football game. You need

1788
01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:17,040
Speaker 1: to get your ass kicked in order to go back

1789
01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 1: and redefine what your party represents. And neither party has

1790
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,240
Speaker 1: really gotten an ass kicking. I think Trump minus COVID

1791
01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 1: would have absolutely obliterated Joe Biden, like I think it

1792
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:31,880
Speaker 1: would have been nasty and buck to your point. We

1793
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:34,600
Speaker 1: were just talking about this off the air. You know

1794
01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:37,439
Speaker 1: things are going bad for Democrats because they are curled

1795
01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:39,600
Speaker 1: up in the fetal position right now, desperately trying to

1796
01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,639
Speaker 1: run out the clock. Many of them Carry Lakes an example.

1797
01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:44,640
Speaker 1: Right now, she's gonna win, and I think she may

1798
01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:48,120
Speaker 1: win in a relative landslide in Arizona. Katie Hobbs won't

1799
01:31:48,160 --> 01:31:52,160
Speaker 1: debate her. Katie Hobbs is running and hiding. Many Democrats,

1800
01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:56,880
Speaker 1: Kathy Hokel, I think, will not debate Lee Zelden. They thought, hey,

1801
01:31:56,960 --> 01:32:00,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna win this cycle. Let's just going high. And

1802
01:32:00,360 --> 01:32:02,800
Speaker 1: as that Republican tide is surging, I think a lot

1803
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:06,240
Speaker 1: of voters are saying, shouldn't you have to defend your

1804
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:10,600
Speaker 1: own policies instead of running and hiding. They're hoping that

1805
01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:14,120
Speaker 1: the Democrat media apparatus is going to push them across

1806
01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:17,280
Speaker 1: the finish line. They they've known that they're in for

1807
01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:19,680
Speaker 1: a rough election for some period of time here. But

1808
01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:24,639
Speaker 1: for example, in the Spanburger Vega debate for the Virginia

1809
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:28,519
Speaker 1: seventh Congressional district that's been canceled, and Spanburger, who's one

1810
01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:30,760
Speaker 1: of these, Oh, I'm kind of I'm kind of a

1811
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,719
Speaker 1: moderate Democrat. You know, you can trust me. I'm not crazy,

1812
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:35,680
Speaker 1: but votes with the rest of the crazy Democrats on

1813
01:32:35,720 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: all the crazy Democrats stuff. She says that it's because

1814
01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:44,680
Speaker 1: a conservative radio host was among the people allowed to

1815
01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:47,960
Speaker 1: moderate the debate. And so we sit here and say, well,

1816
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:50,599
Speaker 1: hold on a second. We've had people going in debates

1817
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:53,679
Speaker 1: with total Libs for as long as I've been alive,

1818
01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:56,679
Speaker 1: and that's the that's just the standard. So she's trying

1819
01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:59,920
Speaker 1: to duck the debate, that's obvious. You have a hope

1820
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:03,280
Speaker 1: trying to duck the debate too. What does this tell everybody? Though?

1821
01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:06,200
Speaker 1: Federman is ducking the debate until after you've had how

1822
01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:08,680
Speaker 1: many weeks of early voting in Pennsylvania which is where

1823
01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:11,760
Speaker 1: Democrats think they're going to pick up their biggest advantage

1824
01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:13,760
Speaker 1: in the voting cycle. They think that they do better

1825
01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:18,120
Speaker 1: in early, early ballots, and they're just trying to make

1826
01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:21,680
Speaker 1: sure they do everything possible to expose their candidates and

1827
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:25,000
Speaker 1: the record of the Democrat Party to the least amount

1828
01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:28,320
Speaker 1: of scrutiny. That's the whole game. We all see it.

1829
01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:30,479
Speaker 1: They have Okay, there's not even a response to this,

1830
01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 1: like we just know this is what's going on. Yeah,

1831
01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:37,760
Speaker 1: and they thought they, I think, be able to get

1832
01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:41,599
Speaker 1: away with it because I think in many of these races,

1833
01:33:41,800 --> 01:33:44,519
Speaker 1: Federman thought, hey, I'm up double digits, I'm gonna win.

1834
01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:49,960
Speaker 1: I think that people and like Lee's Eldon Kathy Hokel

1835
01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:51,679
Speaker 1: just thought, hey, there's no reason for me to debate.

1836
01:33:51,720 --> 01:33:54,000
Speaker 1: I'm winning. When you're up fifteen points, you can say

1837
01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:56,880
Speaker 1: whatever you want. They're one of the little people. They

1838
01:33:56,920 --> 01:33:59,360
Speaker 1: don't matter. You know, I'm going to win. Comfort when

1839
01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:04,400
Speaker 1: you're all aged up three points four points, you're hiding yes,

1840
01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:10,799
Speaker 1: and the numbers are breaking in such a significant way. Again,

1841
01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:17,559
Speaker 1: I would just tell everybody out there, study what Carrie

1842
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:22,200
Speaker 1: Lake has done and replicate it to the best of

1843
01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:25,599
Speaker 1: your ability. Now everybody doesn't have her acumen and her

1844
01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,439
Speaker 1: panajh in front of a camera because they're not professional

1845
01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:32,160
Speaker 1: television people. But being able to have a full record

1846
01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:34,720
Speaker 1: of every interview that you do with people who you

1847
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:36,800
Speaker 1: know hate you and want to take you out of

1848
01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:39,400
Speaker 1: context and want to use thirty seconds or a minute

1849
01:34:39,439 --> 01:34:41,320
Speaker 1: of what you say to try and tar and feather

1850
01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:44,320
Speaker 1: you first, it just puts the media on notice. And

1851
01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:46,240
Speaker 1: that's what I love about what Carrie Lake's doing. You've

1852
01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 1: seen some reporters write about what it's like to be

1853
01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:51,559
Speaker 1: confronted by her with the cameras on them. I would

1854
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:54,080
Speaker 1: just say this, why should you be able to write

1855
01:34:54,120 --> 01:34:58,519
Speaker 1: a story about a candidate without having to have every

1856
01:34:58,640 --> 01:35:02,240
Speaker 1: word that you ask corded too, like you're recording what

1857
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:05,160
Speaker 1: they're saying. Like it seems very fair to me that

1858
01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:08,040
Speaker 1: they would record everything that you say as well. And

1859
01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:10,040
Speaker 1: we've had a lot of success with this at out Kick.

1860
01:35:10,479 --> 01:35:12,599
Speaker 1: The place I saw at National Politics make a lot

1861
01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:14,679
Speaker 1: of sense buck was when Trump put out the sixty

1862
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:18,000
Speaker 1: minutes interview. If you remember back in the day before

1863
01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:21,439
Speaker 1: the presidential election, where he's sitting there asking, I think

1864
01:35:21,479 --> 01:35:23,840
Speaker 1: it's Leslie Stall, why are you guys not talking about

1865
01:35:23,880 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden laptop. And she's like, well, we can't

1866
01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:28,760
Speaker 1: verify it, and now we all know that it's true.

1867
01:35:28,800 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 1: We need to play Speaking of that, the Jeff Zucker

1868
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:34,439
Speaker 1: trying to defend why he didn't covered the Hunter Biden

1869
01:35:34,720 --> 01:35:37,960
Speaker 1: and the MSNBC guy Phil Griffin, I think, is that right? Yeah, yeah,

1870
01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:40,080
Speaker 1: that's good. I think we have that audio for you

1871
01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:42,840
Speaker 1: later in the show. But in the meantime, I want

1872
